It’s not as user friendly, but it gets the Braves. I’ll probably drop it during the months of every braves off-season.
I can only compare to Comcast, but direct TV stream is working great for me. As mentioned, it’s not quite as user friendly in some aspects. But it is very convenient - we have it on every device and it’s pretty seamless to pick up watching on another device or tv. The price is right too.
That was my reasoning for getting Directv stream...Youtube TV doesn't have Ballys and therefor can't watch the Braves
I did a free trial of DTV Stream a few weeks ago and it was ok. My biggest complaint was that it was slow to respond when I tried to do anything on the menu. I canceled regular DTV yesterday after one of my promotions expired and they didn’t offer anything else. I’ll be going with YouTube TV. A friend of mine is going to add me to his account and I’ll pay him around $15 a month and I’ll also give him my login for HBO Max. Another friend of mine gave me his login info so I can still watch the Braves so I’m good to go.
It’s not worth it to me. I didn’t like it. I think you’re better off getting Hulu and Sling
I’ve got the latest Apple TV and DTV Stream is quick. I used to have true DTV satellite. Had it for years. The Streaming version is better. I get everything for half the price I used to pay for satellite. It also helps that I was one of the original subscribers, so I have a subscription that apparently is no longer offered.
I was at a beach house that I thought didn't have any TV service when I tried it with a regular Firestick so maybe that's why I found it a little slow. At home, I have a variety of software options, but Apple TV isn't one of them. Yesterday was my first full day with YT and so far, so good. My only complaint right now is that YT doesn't give you the option to record first runs only of shows which will be a bit of a pain when marathons are on and my DVR if full of stuff I've already watched.
