im missing NBC/ABC, sadly Vue has the on-demand options, but I may grab an antenna for that.

After we cut cable, we were using Direct TV Now for a while, then jumped over to Sling since it was less expensive.Does anyone have any experience with Sling TV? I don't think there's the ability for DVR functionality but it almost looks too good to be true.

Sling has been wildly inconsistent for us, refusing to connect for no apparent reason, suddenly working, then crapping out again. Sometimes one TV won't connect while the other one will. Bummer, because the Blue package gives us a good deal of stuff that we actually watch.
As I type this, Mrs. G is looking into returning to Direct TV Now, because we're tired of not knowing if the the stupid TV is gonna work when we turn it on.
We're using Fire Sticks and have a Nighthawk router, for those who are hardware-curious.
Big fan of Playstation Vue. They offer a week free trial as well
Have it. It's okay. Biggest benefit to me is that I can watch local sports teams (Yankees), but it occasionally staggers/buffers. My internet speeds are 30Mbps/5Mbps, which should be more than adequate.im switching to hulu tv today. should be saving about 60-80$ a month over my xfinity service. we'll see how it goes

Also there's no channel guide. You have to favorite your shows and channels as it's not really set up for couch surfing.
yea i might have to upgrade to 200mbps a minute, but xfinity rips you off. its 100$ a monthidk about that, i use a HDHomerunPrime for all my live tv viewing (the triple play package is cheaper than two services and someone in my house is stuck on having a house phone :O)
but i found it necessary to upgrade my entire network (internally) to gigabit in order to stream live tv in HD, the PRIME uses up to 40 MBPS per device using it. since upgrading to gigabit no problems, before than more than 1 tv running at a time would cause buffering/stuttering.
