I feel like WatchESPN should probably be included if Hulu and Netflix are.

Many sports fans do their sports viewing through this app. Especially if the sports program is not included on ESPN or ESPN2. This includes many of the football games during the season that are shown on ESPN3.

You don't have AT&T U-verse as an option.

That's basically a cable provider, same with Google fiber

No option on the last question for OTA HDTV (not smartTV).

True. I figure everyone has a TV.

El Jefe

DIRECTV Now should be an option.

I didn't include services that require cable authentication

El Jefe

The majority of WatchESPN doesn't require cable authentication

That's not entirely true.

El Jefe

That's been my experience. I get barely anything live w ESPN online.

Plex should be an option.

Romex

It doesn't provide any content itself, it just provides access to content

El Jefe

7/18/17 8:15pm

Not true, there are channels installed by default in Plex for content. NBC, ABC

Romex

7/18/17 8:37pm

Those require cable authentication to watch episodes

El Jefe

The networks put out a lot of free content online, even full episodes

KingDave

7/19/17 12:10pm

There aren't a ton of free full episodes.

A missing option that I bet is more common that a lot of want to admit:
