At present more people than before removing their traditional television plans for direct and over-the-top streaming (OTT) alternatives. This is because while cables and satellites have been one of the options for quality television channels, better reliability from the internet now gives more households on entertainment choices without requiring a little sacrifice, at least when it comes to availability and channel features. When interested in TV directly specifically, consumers can switch to OTT services to watch their favorite networks, but through the internet rather than through cables or satellite boxes.
There are several OTT TV streaming options, including some platforms that are quite unclear like Philo. The two most famous direct internet television services are Hulu Live TV and Sling TV. Both of these platforms have existed for quite a long time now and are generally well received by the public. While each option offers the same type of service – Television is directly channeled via the internet – they are very different in terms of price and how they plan to work. Which choice is better for someone who is ready to throw their cable box?
With this advanced step in conquering the world of internet TV services, Hulu feels that the company can be the “main source of television viewers,” Hulu CEO Mike Hopkins said in 2017 (through variety). Upstream Live TV has developed for many years since it was launched and most of it has fulfilled its goal of being the main source of television.
Customers get access to various popular channels, including national networks, as well as optional add-ons that include access to content available from third parties such as showtime and HBO. Television content is directly accessed through the same application as content according to upstream demand, making it a strong OTT option for consumers who want to switch fully to internet -based entertainment.
Sling TV was officially launched to the household on February 9, 2015. Like the upstream of Live TV, customers can access the TV streaming channel directly through sling, which uses very different plan settings and is mostly unique when compared to upstream. While the last service has two plans with the only difference is whether you will see advertisements on request, Sling TV has divided two services into two different core plans called orange and blue, each with a price of $ 35-even though consumers can also Getting the two cores to be bundled together with $ 50 per month, which means sling is slightly weakening upstream in terms of cost.
Two different plans come with their own channels, and while they have the same network offers, some channels are only available in one plan. For example, at the time of writing, Sling TV’s Blue Plan offers Bravo, E!, FX, and MSNBC, among others, while Orange plans do not have this channel. On the other hand, The Orange Plan offers Mottrend, Freeform, ESPN/2/3, Disney Channel, and other channels that are not available at the Blue Plan. For this reason, many customers choose to register for Blue + Orange Bundle, maximizing the channel they get.
Hulu Live TV displays more than 75 channels of direct and according to demand, although the exact numbers received by customers will depend on their market. Many main TV networks are available on upstream OTT services, including Adult Swim, CBS, ABC, FX, A&T, TLC, TBS, NFL Network, Lifetime Movies, CNN, Bet, ID, Syfy, and many more (through upstream). In addition to the national network, customers also get access to their local channels, including ABC, CBS, NBC, Fox, CW, and Telemundo regional channels. Spanish networks, additional sports channels, and entertainment networks can be added as an additional $ 4.99 per month, $ 9.99 per month, and $ 7.99 per month additional month.
