November 8, 2025 -
While r/cordcutters would be the best place to talk about other providers, such as Hulu or Fubo or DirecTV, we realize that some of you might prefer to have those discussions here, among other YTTV users.
For that reason, this Megathread will serve as the place to discuss this topic.
Post about other providers outside of this Megathread will be removed.

Fubo still uses a lower bitrate and, when scaled to screens larger than 15”, is akin to smeared vaseline. Excluding network apps, my exterior antenna picks up ATSC 3.0 HD channels and those are superior to most IP streams. YTTV as close as it gets to a consistently solid picture quality for sports. This whole thing has reminded me how quickly the consumer got screwed in all of this.
