YouTube TV going down during NBA playoffs has NFL fans worried about football season
Many households are moving out of the cable era and are switching solely to streaming when it comes to their television. However, as more and more people do that, problems like what we saw last week on a platform like YouTube TV have started to pop up and, in this instance, it had sports fans heated.
During Game 1 of the NBA’s Eastern Conference Finals between the Miami Heat and Boston Celtics, the broadcast simply cut out. The audiences who streamed on YouTube TV missed the final moments of what became a 123-116 victory for the Heat in TD Garden. As many pointed out, though, it was less about this one game and more about what this could mean about watching sports in the near future.
This was a serious issue for NFL fans even though the season is still three months away. With Sunday Ticket only available through YouTube TV, football fans everywhere are worried that this could happen again during their team’s games next fall.
It’ll feel even worse considering what the company is charging per package. Ahead of the next campaign, YouTube is charging anywhere from $250 to $350 for a season’s subscription. That goes up to $290 to $390 if you include the RedZone bundle. It’s then even more if you’re not already a subscriber to YouTube TV.
There are few threats that you could make to a sports fanatic that are worse than taking away their viewing privileges, especially during football season. That’s why NFL fans everywhere are hoping to see these bugs figured out and corrected before next season gets going.
