Not mentioned – On FUBO you can split your screen to view 4 separate channels (games) at one time. I tend to use this option the most especially on the big screen. It’s great if you have ADHD:) Reply
Locast is amazing if you’re into classic tv. Decades, Cozi, Heroes & Icons, MeTv. Even if I eventually buy Hulu Live or Fubo I plan to keep Locast for the classics. Reply
Locast is offline by court order. I’m bumbed because this happened 3 weeks after I cut the cable. Now I have to pay for a live tv service, $65.00+ just to watch local new and my local NFL team. I Can’t get channels using a antenna. Reply
Nope! These are separate services that you can subscribe to *instead* of DirecTV. You’ll just have to have an internet connection. Reply
They don’t have their own equipment you have to decide what type of steaming device you want to use and purchase! Fubo &Hulu live & sling TV are just apps that you download to the steaming device theirs also CBS all Access but they only offer one local CBS channel and Amazon Prime carries some sports but no real live channels other then that! Reply
fuboTV doesn’t need its own box! You can just grab its app for whatever device you use to stream. If you have a smart TV, you won’t need anything else. If you don’t have a smart TV, you can grab a streaming device like a Roku or a Fire TV Stick — both of those work great with fuboTV. Reply
FUBO does not require a “box” that you rent from them like cable or satellite services. What you will need is either of these to view FUBO: Amazon Fire TV Apple TV Roku Google Chromecast Android TV Android phone, tablet iPhone, iPad PC or Mac web browsers You probably have several of these with you already. I know I do. No need to buy anything if that is the case. Just download the app or go directly to the website and sign in. Reply
Does HULU give you live CNN? FUBO only provides previous programs unless you subscribe to a cable service. Reply
Both of these services will give you live CNN! For Hulu, just make sure you’re getting the “+ Live TV” subscription, which is the one with live TV channels. Reply
I had hulu live tv plus the disney bundle, hbo max, starz and showtime. When I went to FUBO, I added showtime, starz, epix, multiple screens and went with the quarterly payment, which allows additional channels. Then I added disney plus only app – paid for a year, save two months. Then added the HBOMAX app which was $16 per month. Hulu $141.21 per month, multiple screens, plus addons…. FUBO with over 100 channels, plus my add ons, plus Disney plus and HBO all came to $109 per month. Even if I added Hulu only I still save money. But I have over 1000 hours of recorded time and up to 5 screens from home. I wish I went to FUBO first. Reply
I have three questions: 1. Are there contracts with either Hulu Live TV or Fubo? If I sign up and decide to terminate service after, let’s say, three months will I pay cancelation fees? Or can I cancel anytime? 2. How does each service (Hulu Live TV and Fubo) handle a cross country move? Would I have to cancel service in my current area and restart in new city, or does the service just follow me? 3. I live in a very rural area. Yes we have high speed internet. How do I find out if Hulu Live TV or Fubo are offered in my area without talking to one of their salespeople? Is there a map of coverage areas or a place to punch in your zip code on their websites to check for coverage options? Reply
Thanks for reading! 1. No, no contracts. 2. You can move and keep your service — you’ll just have to let them know you have a new home, so that they can figure out which local channels to give you (it’s pretty easy to do on both services, and you can always give them a call if you need help). 3. If you’re in the U.S., you’ll definitely be covered by both of these services. The only thing that will vary by region will be which local and regional channels you get (if any). You can get more details on the local channels by visiting the service’s websites. You’ll either see the channels listed right on the home page (they use your IP address to figure out which channels to show) or you’ll be able to search by your zip code. Reply
Hulu constantly drops out despite fact I have very few people using the Comcast nodes. This drop out problem doesn’t plague other apps I have, e.g. Britbox.. How does Fubo compare to Hulu Live with respect to dropouts? Reply
In our testing, we’ve found both fuboTV and Hulu + Live TV to be pretty good in that department. I’d probably give fuboTV a slight edge, but I’m not sure the issues you’re having will go away with fuboTV, because it sounds like it might be an internet or Wi-Fi speed issue. Do you have this issue with Hulu in general, or only when watching live TV? Live TV is tougher on your internet connection, so it could still be an internet speed issue even if other (on-demand) streaming apps work fine. fuboTV has a free trial, so I’d suggest starting with that and seeing if you run into the same issue — and if you do, then consider upgrading your internet. Thanks for reading and I hope this helps you out! Reply
I’m afraid not! Generally, all of these live TV streaming options have ads, but they’ll typically let you skip the ads on on-demand and DVR’d content. With live TV, though, there’s really no way around the ad breaks — they’re built right into the live broadcasts, so the only other option would be a blank screen! Reply
Haven’t tried fubo yet, but I’m going to. I have hulu now and pause doesn’t work. You can pause it then in a few seconds it starts up on it’s own. VERY frustrating, I’ve looked online and evidently everyone has this problem with hulu. Reply
They’ll both work on multiple TVs. Multiple locations can be trickier, though. You generally won’t be able to share a live TV account with people who live far away. If you’re just using your own devices and traveling from time to time, that shouldn’t be a problem. Reply
Hi Bill, thanks for reading! Both of these can work on a bunch of different devices, not just smart TVs. The device you’re using does have to be connected to the internet, though. If you have a “dumb” TV, you can solve the problem pretty easily by buying a streaming device like Roku or Fire TV. Those are internet-connected devices that can plug right into your TV’s HDMI port (just like a Blu-ray player does) and run Hulu, fuboTV, etc. Reply
I want to get Sunday football games, Monday night football, Thursday night football, plus Baseball, Do I get all that with FUBO or HULU Live? Hate NC has only one team for football. Reply
Fubo allows up to 4 sports on screen at once. As a college basketball fan this is awesome as it is easy to quickly move from game to game. Also, they now have a sports betting app available if you are into sports betting. Reply
