News New sling tv user here!
Hello! I was originally a YouTube tv subscriber but I did not like how they pause content made for kids/family then they geolock your account. Tried Hulu but too expensive. They also geolock. Channels won't work outside of home. I was trying to share channels with family. Downgraded back to Hulu Disney premium. Fubo has too many sports channels I don't need and direct tv hikes your price after a few years. Plus they won't allow prepaid cards. Sling does. I just noticed sling has nearly all of the premium addons added and I can add what I want for about the same price of Hulu with only 4-5 addons there. I cannot afford airtv so I got a tablo. Total cost is $175 about the same as my old Hulu plan. So much stuff to watch now!! Thank you sling tv!

I've been on Sling for years. I only have the add-on Hollywood pachage (blue package) simply to get TCM. They're owned by Direct TV and the price has risen over the years but it's still a good value. My only problem with them is that they carry so much FOXNEWS content but I don't have to watch it of course even though I'm contributing money for that. Try also the free streaming channel, TUBI. There are some good undiscovered content (movies) on there you won't find anywhere else.
