Title: For those of you stuck with Comcast... Post by: Black Diamond Vol on March 25, 2019, 02:02:06 EDT ...I now have zero sympathy. When I moved down here, I learned that the only cable/internet provider in this area was something called WOW!. Well, WOW! sucks big fat emu eggs. Frequently, you get a 2-3 hour period when your picture is all pixelated. At least once per day, it will go completely black for a 1-2 minute period. This happened today near the end of our game, and I was pulling my hair out while trying to follow along on my phone.
I'd give ANYTHING to go back to Comcast. :banghead: Title: Re: For those of you stuck with Comcast...

I just canceled my 30 year Directv account to go wireless. I now have Youtubetv and Philo combination. Title: Re: For those of you stuck with Comcast... Post by: Creek Walker on March 25, 2019, 03:15:58 EDT I went away from Dish Network three years ago and went to Sling. Hated it, so I switched to PS Vue. I didn't like it much either and wound up going back to Dish. But a few weeks ago I got tired of the ever-increasing rates and called Dish, told them to send me a box so I could ship their crap back to them. I went to Hulu and I like it much better than either of the other streaming services I tried.

And I can't watch sports on any of the streaming services. I like to follow along online, and the 3-4 minute buffer means I read about a big play on Twitter long before I actually see it.

That is a huge issue. I'm learning that I just have to avoid social media while the games are going on. I read about the win over UK last weekend on Twitter before I actually saw it. I watch absolutely nothing on TV anymore except sports, so Hulu works for me. I like having the local network stations packaged with everything else rather than requiring a separate streaming subscription. Title: Re: For those of you stuck with Comcast...

Ga (Chattanooga TV market) gets all the OTA networks, but CBS is the only one she can watch live. Shows on the others can be streamed the following day. That won't work for me.

No that would not work for me either. I tried em all and liked Youtubetv the best. Philo is $16/month so that the Mrs gets her channels. Title: Re: For those of you stuck with Comcast...
