The one I use has everything on it. But the guide and navigation sucks. It takes too long to find what I want to watch!
Fellow cord cutters: What's the best iptv?
- Thread starter lawcalcock
- Start date
I’m with Hulu & the recent channel tab saves me from having to scroll from top to bottom
I have Hulu also and Love it. But the content is limited. I get to watch all the sports channels and great movies on my iptv.
In addition to hulu, I'm using streamhost, but the navigation sucks. A friend of mine swears by mynet-tv. I thought some other members might be using it.
No Youtube tv people? I like it. Has recent channels, easy guide, and all the content I need right now.
The recent channels is awesome during football season. On button and I can see 4 or 5 games on at a time and channel surf.

I'm with hulu and found if I build "my channels" to include what I watch most, it helps not having to go through all channels. Another thing I found was that my tv itself was making surfing worse. I have since bought a new roku tcl tv and it now allows me to play a channel in the background while I look at the guide. My old smart tv wouldnt allow that for some reason... just went to the guide with annoying silence. Ill add the guide is easier to see and faster now too. Another bonus is the new tv creates a nicer guide for channels picked up using an antenna... with the ability to pause and rewind over the air content by using a memory stick.
I have YouTube but I want to cut it off.i went to YouTube after comporium went up on the rates.
Here is a free paid version,it’s way better than the free version.i haven’t heard of stream host yet.ill have to look them up.
Thank you! Streamhost is quality! Great 4k streaming with no buffering. All the channels and series. But the navigation is tedious. It takes a while to find a lot of what you're looking for. The search engine is useless.
I use Apollo Tv at the moment.but there player isn’t good.i use it to navigate the vod section as it’s better than tivimate at the moment imo.
Warning to all channels free TV, they just cracked down on one in the UK which provided 2.4 million services. Shut down illegally streaming the content.
They added some channels and they are still at $50 and that's probably as half as much as you pay comporium.
One thing about Youtube, Sling, Hulu, and other streaming services, they are month to month. You can cut them loose at any time.
With internet and cable I was paying $147..in February it was going up to around $200 as they wasn’t doing contracts no more.so I cut off the cable and kept internet as I don’t really have a choice where I live.its $75 for 500 mb..
Why do you need 500 mbs internet? That is a lot of bandwidth. I have 100 and is good. A lot of people that stream get by with 25 mbs. Unless you're running a lot of devices at the same time.
With youtube you can have 5 family accounts, guess that includes phones, tablets or TVs. They all need an internet connection and with an app to log on. Some smart tvs come with embedded apps on their menu otherwise you would need a streaming device like roku, x box or amazon fire stick or others.
I have 100@ $50 per month. Works great on all our devices. No buffering or cueing.
Best for the money where I'm at.i think its $50 for 300mb, not sure tho. Plus there are 6 adults here with 6 phones(10 all total with another 1 due in the fall,i will have 5 grandkids.and yes its crowded), plus all the streaming on the 3-4 tvs.my 2 boys play online also(pc+xbox)
Hulu allows two or for like an extra $10, I think its unlimited. That said, with specific channel apps on other tvs and logging in to those apps with a hulu account, only having two can work.
Be careful of IPTV services offering hundreds/thousands of channels for a ridiculously low price. Many are illegal.

Sounds like a server out there somewhere casting content. They give prices but no content. If you lose service in a month for tech problems, tough luck, you pay anyway.
I recently dropped Directv and starting using YouTube TV. So far so good
Its 6000 channels and Ive used it for 2 years never had an issue.
I've tried Sling a few years ago and Hulu TV more recently. Had PlayStation Vue for a couple of years until they discontinued streaming TV in January. Switched to YouTube TV and have been very satisfied. The $50 per month (plus tax) is a bit higher than I'd like, but the channel lineup is good, particularly sports and news. I get all 4 local channels as well as PBS, too. Unlimited DVR capability at no extra charge. Navigation is fairly simple and quality is good. Includes up to 5 devices.
We use Amazon Fire Sticks with their universal remotes on 4 TV's around the house. 75 mbps internet from Xfinity (Comcast) for which we pay another $70 monthly. However, we do own our own router & modem (you only need one each at the incoming internet source). You can do fine with less internet than that, but we don't experience any delays or buffering, no matter how many devices are active. Also, you can go online and suspend & reactivate your account at any time with no charges. Very convenient when traveling, as well.
I am very satisfied, though I do occasionally look around to see what's out there. Haven't found anything as good, or better, yet. I recommend YouTube TV.

I had YouTubeTV and loved it until they removed Fox Regional Sports Networks from much of their coverage area around the first of the year. No Braves or Hurricanes (or Hornets, who I didn't watch) except in certain markets, so I left. If they return those channels, I'll go back to YouTubeTV ASAP.

We have Firesticks on 4 TVs. Have HuluLive (pay extra for the unlimited), Philo TV (for Paramount Network - me for Yellowstone, and Hallmark for Grandmother), and other streaming services (mainly extra channel subscriptions through Prime). Our phone/internet bundle through ATT, with a crap ton of bandwith is $80/month.
Still A LOT cheaper than the phone/internet/DirectTV bundle we used to have.
And I get to watch all the college baseball I want on SECN+. Oh wait...

$20.00/month
It has a bunch of channels that are not on Hulu Live (all the Lifetimes, Hallmark Channels, all the extra Discovery channels, AMC, MTV Networks, Nickelodeon).
I got my parents started on Yellowstone last night. Paramount is airing 2 episodes of Season 1 each night this week, at 9 & 10 pm, and then will have a Season 2 marathon Sunday before the premier that night.
Here is an new video on the one I posted with more of the way the epg looks.this one shows how to record but u proberly going to need to expand the storage on a fire stick if you want to dvr anything.there are videos on YouTube showing how to do it.i haven’t done it myself as of yet.
I turned in my Spectrum box and now use just their ap to stream through my Roku Ultras. As a result my bill dropped to $120. That includes the internet, sports stations, SEC etc plus all the regular and local programing. The real shocker is the Roku Ultra gives a much better wireless picture than the hard wired Spectrum HD box.
