I know some people here have been using DirecTV Now.
Anyone using Hulu Live TV?
$40/month, but I already have Hulu, so it's really on $30 more.
And, it has one of the local/regional networks that my wife really wants to keep.
DirecTV does not have that one.
Any experiences with performance/reliability or anything else about it?

Another new alternative is YouTube TV. I was very surprised to get all of the ‘big three’ local affiliates live using it. The only service yet to offer that. $35 a month including a DVR service. Only deal breaker was they don’t offer two or three channels on our ‘must have’ list.
Interesting. Plus don't you get Google Music and the YouTube Red stuff? That would be a bargain.

Looks like it could be good, but not yet available everywhere. You have to be within the "broadcast area" of about a couple dozen major cities to sign up, I know that I am too far from the closest in Hartford, CT. That is only about 65 miles away.
