  • I’m wondering why YouTube tv isn’t available somewhere in the US. Seems odd. It’s not like YouTube or google has to come out and run a cord to your house. Why wouldn’t it be available?

          They don't like to launch without locals.
          Ain't it like most people, I'm no different. We love to talk on things we don't know about.

              Gotcha.

              Psvue originally launched in Houston without cbs. I don’t watch cbs so I didn’t care. The super bowl was on cbs that year so I just got the cbs app and got a free one week trial then cancelled. About a month later cbs was added to the lineup.

                I blame Comcast for their stupid Dream Gig commercials. Yes, they're only taking about 1 Gbps, but it got my mind making the jump too soon.

                • My sister finally took my 84 yo mother to the Apple Store and got her an Apple 8. I spent 45 minutes on the phone with her last night trying to teach her how to text. My mom has always been a positive and upbeat kinda gal... but her age really showed through. It was a little disconcerting.

                    yeah that’s kind of how we feel about the whole grey text thing

                    • Finally cut the cord this week and am trying to decide what I need beyond Netflix and Amazon. I think I'm going to start with Hulu Live and hope that's sufficient. Youtube tv not available in my area yet. PSvue is tempting but I'm afraid this early I'll be tempted to choose the higher priced options. I need to rehab a bit first.

                        I really like Youtube tv, sorry you live in the middle of nowhere.

                        I still wonder if I am paying too much for it, but I love getting all the byu games, so I am in.

                          How much are you paying? I'm only paying $35/mo. It can't be more than $40/mo., can it?

                            I am grandfathered in at the $35.

                            I just don't watch it that much. But I sure am taking advantage of the unlimited DVR

                            I usually record about 4-5 football games on saturday and then watch them that evening. They only take about 10-15 minutes to watch.

                            During the week, I am lucking if we have time for a 30 minute show, though we are almost done with the most recent season of Schitt's Creek.

                              What?!?! How am I going to watch the game tomorrow? We cut ours two weeks ago.

                                We tried PSVue for a couple of months, back to back with Sling. I liked the guide menu better, but Mrs. NWC learned Sling's eccentricities and didn't want to switch. So it's gone. As far as content, I really couldn't see much difference for us.
