YoutubeTV has 85 channels, I want to watch 5-10 of them

Here’s the problem. More channels equals more money for all these providers

However, I challenge you to find a better option for the price.

Unless you're a Jazz fan in Utah.

How much DVR space does PSVue have?

Romex

7/19/19 6:24pm

Unlimited.

BYUtka

7/19/19 6:27pm

But it is limited to how long you can keep the recording right?

YouTube also has restrictions. The DVR situation is very similar. PS Vue allows

BYUtka

Not similar at all. It’s 28 days for PSVue and 9 months for YouTube tv

scootsy

7/19/19 9:30pm

Correct, YTTV 9 Months for Live TV, Recorded Movies never "expire"

PS Vue limits your DVR space to 500 recordings...which, yes, is practically

That's the sad state of things right now, cord cutting is a farce

Reedme

7/19/19 6:30pm

I don't think it's an insistence on sticking to an old model that's the

Hypnotoad

It's like the music industry pre-mp3s

Reedme

I disagree and think bundling is the future. You mentioned the affordability

Hypnotoad

You have to think like a customer not a content provider

Reedme

No content providers are interested in doing this.

The dream is an a-la-carte cable tv service.

How content providers view giving you channels (what they are worth):

When it's time to raise prices they got a handful of channels nobody cares about

zerigke

7/19/19 6:24pm

Yes, it is a terrible pricing practice used when there is little value

Reedme

7/19/19 6:35pm

Yup - but at least YouTube tv works better for my mobile lifestyle

If they bump price again I am going to bail....

Bonoman

It’s more like “contract cutting” instead of “cord cutting”

cougarnerd

The ondemand content they have is unmatched..

What more does it have that PS Vue doesn't?

BYUtka

7/19/19 7:36pm

A decent interface
