Youtube tv by far...and with youtube tv you can use your account on ESPN to watch other games not on youtube tv...you get you about 3 or 4 friends. one of you sign up for the youtube account and just split the bill.

You and 2 friends for a total of 3. Can only stream 3 devices at one time. When a 4th comes online it kicks someone out.

I use Hulu and have no problem with getting every game. I have used Sling and am not a fan of the user interface. Youtube is also a great option.

Sling is horrible. You have to pay extra to get all the espn channels. Sling also made me miss some clemson games due to contract issues. Multiple years. YouTube TV has been the best sports TV streaming to date. Not even close. We’ve tried every TV service available in the US. I’d pay double for YouTube tv and wouldn’t use sling if I was paid to.

The kicker is that I hate google. Their TV service is the only thing I don’t mind using. YouTube for some of the videos.

...could not be happier. I looked at Sling and they just nickel / dime you to death to get the ESPN options. I also bought a SIMO hotspot for tailgating and run YouTube TV at the game. Better quality and a lot easier than the Dish Tailgater.

I have a hard time even making a phone connection with 100,000 people trying to do the same from the same cell tower. Even last year we tried to stream a game and it was a total failure. Where are you located when you’re able to stream at the game?

Sling will probably be better than YouTube because if too many people stream a game on YouTube, it lags and causes connectivity issues. However, I watched every game last year on Hulu.

I’ve had Youtube TV for several years and have never had ANY issues or missed a game.
Youtube TV is far superior!

I have had no issues with Youtube TV lagging during any game I have watched. I believe their platform and servers are big enough now that they can handle all the people cutting cable like I did last year finally.
Only thing I do not like is no Braves, but I can live with that. My guess is they will agree to a deal with so many people wanting it that have Youtube TV, I have voiced my opinion and it is evident that they are trying to structure a deal but no idea if/when it happens. Contract with Bally Sports may be long-term and not much can happen for awhile, but we will see if Bally is willing to work with Youtube TV for rights to televise games.

I watch the 10-12 minute replay of Braves games on YouTube every day. Better than having to watch over an hour of commercials between innings.

YouTube has been better for a while, but Sling may have made some ground up

On regular over the air HD antenna, that is the best quality picture if you have a 4G TV.

I have Sling for over a year, but am considering switching to YouTube TV. I like being able to watch us onACCN and CW, ESPN, but I don’t get any major network games such as ABC, CBS, or NBC so I miss games.
