I have a Sling Orange account for $25+tax for awhile now (about 2 years). It is a great low cost alternative for very small families. Works really well if you primarily watch sports on the ESPN family. Downside...only 1 device at a time...also you have to figure out how to get your locals separately.

I'm switching to Youtube TV now from Sling. Cost is $35+tax but you get locals in larger markets, also FS1, FS2,Fox Regionals, NBCSN, CBSSN, main BTN feed, etc...

A few cautions. If you don't have this (Google Chromecast thingie) up front be prepared to watch the first month on your smartphone or computer (USE GOOGLE CHROME BROWSER). After your 15 day trail they will send you a link to order 1 chromecast for free. The new generation looks like this


About the locals...you don't get everything...just the main feed for ABC, CBS, Fox and NBC. You will need to set up a remote antenna or order the "lifeline" cable TV with your internet. It cost me under $10 to do this. Your call if getting all the sub-channels is worth it. I will be cancelling this and setting up an antenna to pick up the locals soon.

What I liked is as I traveled it recognize where I was and would allow me to watch the locals in Raleigh. Up at my cottage...the local TV market is way too small to support this.

Finally the upside is 3 devices at one time...and remote locations (i.e. Millennial children) seems to work...so about $39 a month is what I pay (includes tax) and I'm currently not wanting and I get 3 devices versus 1. I also get the FOX family which Sling Orange didn't give along with several extra sports channels.

Finally, can't complain about the picture quality...looks 1080P or near it.

Thanks for update and letting us know your experience. It seems like once you get signed up in an available market you are in and can view the app in markets not available for local channels.
I was unable to sign up because I don't live in a market for local channels.
