Options for DirecTV's blackout starting Friday for local ABC


Sep 25, 2019, 3:12 PM

I understand that DirecTV and Sinclair haven't come to an agreement and the blackout will start Friday.

My TV has the Hulu app. I would assume that we would add Hulu Live in our account.

Which streaming service has the better channel interface and options?

Hulu Live does not have regular ABC, only shows on demand that ABC airs.

If you have a smart tv download the YouTube TV app. If you cannot then xbox or playstation will have the app. If you don't have either of those gsme consoles then get a roku stick. One time cost of $30. Youtube tv is more user friendly, has better interface, and you don't need the upgrades lkke hulu tv needs which you have to pay extra for.

Try picking up ABC on 'over the air' broadcast first. Maybe that is a strong station in your area and you can pick it up fine. It's free.
On most remote controls you press the 'Source' button, then use the arrow keys, similar to what you do if you want to switch from cable to DVD player.
Anyway, its worth a try.

Lot of YouTube TV lovers on this site. For me - Playstation Vue had some channels that are "must have" that YouTube TV does not carry. So... before going with a streaming service check the channel lineups to make sure which will suit you best.

When I was researching which service to switch to, someone had a link on here that showed all 3 (PS Vue, Hulu Live, and Youtube TV) lineups so it was easy to compare.
