Home Forums Hunting & Shooting Hunter's Campfire What Streaming Service Are You Using?

Also for you guys in the boonies, I hear good things about Starlink for interenet- very fast compared to the line of site deal or hillbilly internet company.
If the service is "not available" in your area you can get the RV service and it works fine.

A few years back I was paying 250 bucks for TV and Internet.



I have 1 gig Fiber for 65 bucks a month and I stream you tube tv 55 a month for another month and then it jumps to 65.

I am going to hook up Starlink for a family member that has Hughes Phu-cking net and direct TV.

Not a good deal anymore. Hulu live and YouTube TV are up in price about 70% in 2 years. I was just looking at a Comcast Internet and TV bundle, 300mbs and 125 channels for $100. Of course you get stiffed with taxes and fees. Total was about $130. But for the same Internet and let's say YouTube TV, it's $135. Bottom line is there's no better deal anymore and people just need to choose based on which platform they want to use.

That's how they hook you. C'mon cheap entry prices, then slam you with upcharges knowing 80% are too lazy to change.

They're raping & pillaging. If nothing else, pandemic confirmed they have unlimited bandwidth for current & forseeable usage. Never give away anything for which you can charge, and, charge what the market can bear.

I've had Direct TV for nine years. I've tried trial periods Direct TV streaming, Charter streaming, and Youtube TV. We record almost every program we watch, so DVR capability is a must. We just didn't like the program guides, having to use cumbersome remotes, and when you add it all up it's not that much more for the DTV package we have and have liked for several years. If you've been a customer for a while, call DTV and ask for the Customer Loyalty Department and see what discounts they will offer you. You might be surprised; that's what's kept us with DTV.

Screw streaming services. Everything I care to watch is supplied free by the internet or over-the-air TV

Roku is said to be better than Firestick.
I think we are going to give one a try

Between ustvgo.tv and ww4.0123movie.net you have about all the free tv and movies you'll ever need.

Our cable TV service has been encouraging everyone on their service to get on streaming as they are getting out of the TV service sometime next year completely. They have stated in several letters that content has gotten so expensive they are forced to raise their rates several times a year to keep up with costs. Just got a letter and an email announcing another $20 raise in rates to a total of $255 a month for phone, internet, and TV and I don't even have any premium channels. So, we canceled our TV service and kept the Fiber optic internet service we had and I'm looking for a decent deal on a good streaming service with the channels I prefer. Might take a while as they don't make it easy to determine what they supply and not unless you go through their sign up page to research it.... what a pain in the butt...

We have had ROku for 2 years with no issues whatsoever other then changing batteries.


we had 100 mbps cable internet with Time Warner plus their TV service

I now have 1 GIg Fiber service and 2 mesh routers. We have 2 laptops running all day and 3 TV's , an iPad,Thermostat . I stream YoutubeTV for now.

We effectively halved our monthly bill.

We[both] are in the neglected state of Southwest Virginia which is basically West Virginia Lite.
Can't stream anything at my place and cell service suxs[especially as stated above when trees are in full leaf].
Here one must basically be within town limits to get decent wifi/innanet.

We switch every 2-3 years between DTV & Dish.
Sure, I'll play your newbie game.

I had Hulu because I don't care about live content for the most part, and they had an ad free version. I've gotten to the point in my life where I have ZERO patience for ads because they're such a waste of time and are getting more and more woke every day. But now major networks are pulling content from Hulu and putting it on their own fugking streaming service. Comcast streaming bundled with their Internet was very competitive but they didn't have an ad free option on their on demand content.

Yep, best deal going

Have no good intent options. Keep hearing about cable and fiber coming, but only thing we have is att uverse/dsl. Can't stream reliably. Tried Sling and Hulu, too much buffering.

I won't ever have traditional TV again. Nothing of interest. I'd like to stream some YouTube stuff, but I can do without. Maybe one day I'll have internet that can do it.

I had never heard of those websites. But why do they encourage using a VPN for the shows/movies? Actually, I clicked on a couple and it said you HAVE to use a VPN to watch it. Are those websites that non-secure?

How about Fubo TV. Anyone tried that service?
