I miss the old days. I started on Playstation Vue and I think it was $50 for the top tier. I believe I had the $35 package. I still think if they had named it Sony Vue they would have stayed in business. Playstation Vue made people think you needed a Playstation to get it. Answer from Wrench-Turnbolt on reddit.com

r/Hulu on Reddit: Hulu Live vs Youtube TV
February 11, 2025 -

I was curious if anyone has any experience with both of these services. Currently have Hulu live mainly for football season and some on demand programs. I was wondering how Youtube TV compared as it does appear to be a bit cheaper.

I had Hulu live TV last year. Stuck with them for maybe 9 months. Can I say "fuck Hulu?" Yeah, their entire DVR function is perpetually in beta and they don't quality test any of their changes. On a regular basis, recordings we didn't finish in 1 sitting would start from the beginning when we tried to resume them another time. I'm talking start a show, watch part of it, turn the whole system and TV off, then pick up where we left off again later in the day. Then occasionally, a recording would just not work anymore, even if we initially started it without issue. Other recordings would work. It was unpredictable if we could watch our shows. The final straw was when they corrupted our entire DVR of recordings. A week of support promising they're working on it without a resolution, we cancelled. The other backwards limitation is the fact they use your IP address to determine if you're home or somewhere else. 10 years ago, that would be fine. But they use the IPv4 address. Humanity has run out of IPv4 addresses to hand out, so a lot of ISPs use CGNAT to accommodate this. It usually means your IP address changes often. For a lot of users, it results in Hulu telling you you're not at home when you are and you have to get in touch with support to fix this. For my In-laws, this started happening 2-3 times per day. The IP changes are an Internet provider issue, but the fact Hulu is so backwards in dealing with this is a huge strike against them. Also, their support team is the least capable of any company I've ever dealt with. The most they can do is "escalate" your issue and leave you hanging. There's no ticket number to your issue. They never follow up. They never let you know if they ever addressed your issue. They don't even know if anything you called or chatted about is a common problem. Then they want you to use their forums for support, which is littered with issues I've contacted support for multiple times, Hulu staff never responds to the forums, and issues remain problems for customers for years. YouTube TV is worlds better, but not without its own issues. I'll start with the good stuff in contrast to Hulu, but I'm not going to address everything good. First of all, support seems to be pretty responsive here on Reddit, even though it's not really an official avenue for support. The send feedback feature in the app seems to actually get looked at by support, but you'll never know - they don't respond. YouTube TV also uses your IP address for location, but they also use your phone's GPS when you open the mobile app. The phone app basically corrects your location over the ip address and you only need to do this once every 90 days. So if you use the app at least once every 3 months, a changing IP address should never be an issue. And if it is, you can still fix it with the app without needing to get a hold of support. The DVR for me is still an area of problems on YouTube TV, but not nearly as bad as Hulu. At least it works on YouTube TV. First, the DVR works completely differently than any other you'd use anywhere else. They completely reinvented what a DVR is and. It'll take some getting used to. You add shows or movies to your library and whenever they air, they record. That includes reruns, re-airings, etc. you cannot delete recordings either. Every stays there for 90 days then it's removed until it te-records. For TV shows, it's easy to get used to. For movies, you might forget you set something to record once months ago and wonder why it recorded again. You'd have to remove it from your library. The biggest annoyance for the DVR as a new customer is reruns. The Library (your DVR) will push older episodes to you to "catch up" and it's easy to get confused which is catch up vs recently recorded if you aren't paying attention. It helps to use the app or website to mark older seasons or episodes as watched, but it doesn't always work - old stuff still shows up sometimes. I've also had issues with "catch up" pushing video on demand content instead of recordings. VoD content has unskippable ads whereas recorded content can be fast forwarded. And if I watch a VoD episode because that's all that's available at the time, sometimes that will also be the default for a show even though there's a recorded version available. Also very rarely, sometimes shows don't remember where I left off and starts over. But this might have happened 2-3 times in the past 6+ months - it was a regular issue on Hulu. Another aspect YouTube TV does better is the user experience. Hulu is on demand first, live 2nd. So the default opening screen is like Netflix - a list of on demand content categorized by what they want to push towards you. It takes a few extra "clicks" to get to live TV. And navigating the guide for live TV is a chore. YouTube TV has more of a cable experience. Yes, the first screen is still tiles of recommendations, but something is playing in the background and easy to get to if that's what you want. I haven't quite figured out the algorithm for what's playing in the background. Sometimes it's what you last watched. Sometimes it's guessing what you might want to watch based on day, time of day, and watch history. YouTube has improved navigating the guide too. You can get to the guide at the channel you're currently on instead of starting at the top. And they just released a "previous channel" button to make it more like a cable experience. On Dand content is downplayed in YouTube TV but still accessible, in contrast to Hulu. The only other thing to point out is YouTube TV seems like the worse one for ads for on demand content. Many complain about Hulu, but I feel like YouTube has more ads. Which reminds me of another complaint about Hulu which might explain some of the complaints. Hulu basic has a reasonable amount of ads which you can pay extra to be ad-free. Hulu with Live TV adds extra content to on demand from the networks. What they don't tell you is they don't control the ads on this extra network content, or it seems they don't. Even if you pay extra to remove ads on on demand content, ads will still remain on "network exclusive" content that's not otherwise included with Hulu basic. And I found the amount of content included here to be huge. I call this false advertising, but whatever. You pay for ad-free but 75% of what's available is still riddled with ads. And what's worse is they don't have any way to distinguish ad-free vs with ads. It's like playing Russian roulette but with ads and instead of 1 bullet, only 1 chamber is empty. But its been about a year since I had Hulu, so maybe they changed something since my experience. But I hope this helps.

r/youtubetv on Reddit: YTTV vs Hulu
August 22, 2025 -

Just got an email that Hulu is raising prices again to $90 per month. Currently have the Hulu with espn and Disney bundle with ads. Me and my family mainly use Hulu for live tv and watching sports (NFL and F1) on Sunday and Monday (have prime for Thursday). Thinking of switching now and would like to know how you all like it and how would espn work since I use it pretty often. How is espn on YTTV different from the Hulu bundle?

Thanks in advance!

r/youtubetv on Reddit: I recently switched from Hulu to YouTube tv
May 15, 2025 -

I might switch back to- YouTube tv is expensive and why do I get no free movies ? Why would I pay for this if I can access movies on regular YouTube - am i using it wrong ? Are there better platforms?

The reason I switched is bc Hulu started out at $54- now it’s almost $90 and have had zero changes with the same free movies since I first got it a few years back.

r/HuluLive on Reddit: How Good is Hulu Live?
October 31, 2025 -

Current YouTube TV user here, until the end of my billing cycle with the whole Disney and ESPN and the removing of an abundance of channels. Is Hulu Live good for watching live sports and how is the delay on it? I only really care for watching sports for the most part on there, and with YouTube TV removing all of the sport channels, I just had to see what my alternatives are. I know Hulu Live is still owned by Disney, but I have to cave in lol. Feel free to tell me any cool perks or any downsides to Hulu Live, thank you!
