Sling+ live tv or Hulu +live tv?

I know all collect data about us, and I know nobody but me cares, but I trust Google (Youtube) less than anyone.

Just buy a single month and try it out. I have Hulu with Live TV (no ads, lol,) and do have a bitching point. Depending on the network, the rules change.

Watching Soccer on USA, I can't rewind when it's live. If something is on Bravo, and it aired less than 24 hours ago, I can't fast forward through commercials, depending on the show. The rules are different if I recorded it, or if it's "on demand," even breaking down to which show it is. This kind of muckety much isn't exclusive to Hulu (something was released on 30 MAR on Prime Video, but it's marked as unavailable to me late on 31 MAR?)

There are all kinds of peculiarities it seems with all streaming services, but I can only speak to Hulu, Paramount Plus, Peacock, Disney+, Prime Video, and a few others. AppleTV and Netflix are by far the most consistent in displaying content when it's released.

When it comes to these streaming services it all depends on the individual user. You really need to compare the live tv channels each service offers, should also compare Sling & Hulu to YouTube & Fubo to see which ones have what channels you prefer. You will also need to consider the number of TVs you would expect to have turned on in peak times. Just you, you & spouse, teenage kids...

If you are stuck between the 2, also keep in mind that Hulu also comes with an extensive library for streaming services and for a small bump you can also add Disney.

Finally, check with your cell phone carrier and credit cards, many of them offer discounts/free streaming platforms. Although, the free versions typically do not include live tv

Agree to this but I would also factor in whether you will want to use the service away from home, i.e. hunting/fishing camp, RV, etc. It is much, much easier to use YouTubeTV when travelling than it is to use Hulu live.
