I bunked with Brian Ferentz in section 8 housing... he was on top.
I have Hulu+Live and most of what you say is correct but it doesn't have all the same channels as YTTV. Hulu doesn't get AMC, and there might be others, that YTTV does offer.

I tried to look up a comparison for channels, and I found none of them were right, so I didnt go with them. Many of them showed several channels as not on Hulu+Live but are. So I didnt know how accurate any of the info was.
I actually kind of forgot about AMC not being on, used to watch it, and so much has been added that I didnt realize it was still not there.
Edit:
This is the best list I found: But it shows Hulu+LIve not having all the nick, MTV channels, which it does. Also shows no mention of Magnolia net/DIY which it does.
So Probably still missing AMC, Hallmark, IFC, The weather Channel, NBA,MLB too. Although if the list is correct looks like a few channels are missing on YTTV too, ie Lifetime, LTM, A&E, NatGeo,History, Military,Bloomber,boom, and a few more and that doesnt come with ESPN+ and Disney+.

Yeah we were choosing between Hulu and YTTV. Went with Hulu because it has History Channel, which YTTV doesn't. History channel is one of the top channels I watch, so had to go with Hulu, but I do miss AMC.
To your ESPN+ having the main linear ESPN networks on there is happening. Not sure when but it will be happening sooner than most think based on reports.
The minute that happens ISU goes from a 50ish brand to a 25ish.
Real viewers. Put Rutgers and NW on streaming and get a true hard count of the tiny sliver of their metros who watch.
Agreed. ESPN knows the biggest complaint is people feeling duped by getting ESPN+ and finding out you don’t get the main channels that everyone wants. That will all be onboarded to ESPN+ within the next two years I would guess.
This is what I found in the Handbook about conference affiliation etc. I don't find anything about affiliate members.
Only thing I can assume is they only bring in affiliates when one full member does not play a sport, in order to fill out a membership in that sport.
Football is required.
Totally agree with the basketball being amazing, disagree on basketballs effect on streaming.
Only amazon and apple currently offer live sports as streaming services. the question now has to be does this streaming service benefit from having the rights to that content. Something like the NFL is a no brainer, similar for MLS because it is stupid cheap. The question is does something like cbb actually drive increased subscriptions or keep people subscribed. For a company like amazon who already has a massive base with prime it probably doesn't help, for apple though it might. Will be very interesting to see details whenever a streaming partner comes into play.
Strong disagree. The moment they do that they are going to lose a lot of the carrying fees for cable and yttv. ESPN+ is already struggling outside of the bundle and they just doubled the price. No way they essentially abandon the OTA stuff like that.
Peacock and Paramount+ both also have sports.
I think part of the problem is most if not all the other services come with the content from their linear channels.
Discovery+ comes with originals, plus content from CNN, History, Magnolia,ID, Hgtv,TLC, Food, Own, Trvl, Animl planet,A&E, SCI, Lifetime, and more.
Paramount+ includes all the content from CBS, MTV, BET, MTV, Comedy Cent, Nick, Smithsonian, etc, plus Movies and sports.
Peacock includes all content from NBC plus all the content from 50+NBC networks including Sports and Movies.
Most of these streaming platforms not only include the streaming only content, but also include all the content on their cable channels, on demand and/or live. ESPN+ not including it unless you log in with a provider is not the norm, and is hurting the platform.
Does paramount have anything other then champions league? Peacock is a massive oversight by me considering i watch premier league on it every weekend. I think those two are different though since they are free channels not attached to cable packages the way espn is.
I suspect that is a tactic to push more people to their inhouse services. Being Disney owns Hulu, ESPN etc.
By raising the prices of ESPN+ and Disney Plus outside the Hulu+ bundle and keeping the bundle the same price as YTTV it will push more people to their service.
Otherwise those outside the service will be forced to pay more. Win Win for them.
Paramount has all their cable channels besides CBS too like MTV, BET, Comedy Cent, etc , plus originals like 1883.
Sports like NFL, SEC football, Champions League, a few other soccer leagues.
Peacock has sports like, Sunday night Football, NFL, Golf, Golf Channel, Premier league, Notre Dame, MLB, IndyCar, LeMans, Track and Field, Horse Racing, Cycling, WWE, FiFa, etc.
And original content, Besides the shows on all the networks owned by NBC Universal.
Both include movies, some new releases, like Peacock has the new Jurassic Park. Both bring several new movies each month just out of theaters.
No its not limited.
I dont even think its considered a bundle anymore. You just get Disney+ and ESPN+ with Hulu+Live. The way I read it, it just all in one. Used to be a bundle now its just all included the way I read it.
But like I said I have had it since It was offered because it was cheap as a bundle, Now I think its just included.
Hulu + Live TV: Stream TV Channels, Shows, News & Sports
Switch from cable. Get Hulu (With Ads) + Live TV, now with Disney+ (With Ads) and ESPN+ (With Ads). Stream Live TV channels, shows, news & sports online.
I would hope; but between rural Wi-Fi, cheap fans and those looking to “teach ESPN a lesson” some at CF temper my expectations.
