Switched from YouTubeTV to Hulu Live .... my thoughts

I am pretty pissed at Youtube so much that I even cancelled YoutubeTV that I loved. Having Hulu live for about 3 weeks now I am starting to learn.
Some things I have noticed....

YoutubeTV has AMC, Hulu Live does not (not much of a problem as I typically get Shudder which is on AMC+ which is about $7)
Hulu Live has MLB network/Youtube TV does not.

Hulu Live includes their Hulu/Disney/ESPN+ bundle/Youtube TV does not include anything. (I would switch back to Youtube TV if they included Youtube Premium with the Youtube TV subscription.

Price wise they are the same but Hulu includes the $18 bundle that I had separately so I am saving $18 right there.....($11 when I get AMC+)

Some things I do not like about Hulu Live:
- Cannot change the order of the channels. This was a great feature with youtube tv
-Seems to take longer to change channels and when searching guide what you are watching sometimes shuts off.
Only good on 2 devices at the same time compared to 3 on YoutubeTV. Now I am not sure if that includes ESPN+ ... like, could I watch two programs on Hulu live on two devices and then a third using ESPN+ ???? I will find out sooner or later
-YoutubeTV has split screens while Hulu does not. Not really a problem for me as I have 3 TV's in my living room but it was a nice feature. Also youtube tv gives you up to date stats and scores of other games with one click this is not an option with Hulu......

oh well.... I am prepared to dig in and stay away from youtube tv until they include premium with the subscription or halt the onslaught of ads to youtube which has made it nearly unwatchable.....

How do you like Hulu live youtube tv if you have/had it?
 
 
I really like YouTubeTV but not a fan of the price hikes. It gives me plenty of stations and a very comfortable user interface. Recording shows is a breeze. One thing I wish was possible (maybe it is but I haven't seen it) is that I would like to delete shows as I watch them. I've watched almost 18 seasons of Law & Order. No need to keep the previous 17 seasons. Only need the episodes going forward.
 
I understand not liking a few price increases, but my YouTube TV/Frontier bundle is still SOOO much cheaper than what I was paying for Direct TV/Spectrum. I've had zero issues with my internet and only a few blips with YouTube TV (I do wish they had the Hisotry Channel). But to each his own.
 
I don't like the Youtube price hikes. I keep thinking I will take the time to price an Over the Air DVR for locals and individual subscriptions to get what I want. Don't know if it would be cheaper or not.

I wanted Hula initially, but they need an IP tied to a physical address. Bottom line, it doesn't work with T-Mobile cell based home internet.

Is your living room a sport's bar?

We got rid of it in February and haven’t missed it that much. Will get it back for football season, but enjoying the savings for now.
