I wish one could pick and choose what channels they watch for a monthly fee, per number of channels chosen, something to that affect. I don’ need 15 shopping channels, or 20 Latino channels, and who cares what the Kardanshians are doing!! Reading all the comments on many sites, I am still confused! How do I get NHL network, NBCSN in the same package? what app do I need –firestick, utubetv, sling, hulu????!?!? They still “get you”, even if you cut the cable.
ANYONE have a clear, consise, simple, answer/solution out there?
I know right.we cut the cord and now have hulu,fubu, and no nhl channel? Carolina Hurricanes went to fubu or hulu so we cut sling and I forget I have no nhl channel now.the weather channel for one app and canes on another and whos on first whats on second?LITERALLY!its a job
AT&T TV Now is just a repackaged streaming Directv with even more exhorbitant prices. Kind of defeats the whole “cord cutting” concept. I have to pay for 100+ channels I’ll never watch to get the half dozen I do. Not sure why the NHL can’t include the NHL Network in their NHL.tv package, they charge enough for it…
I have Hulu and pay extra for ESPN+ and still the NHL withholds games by moving them to NHL Network! What did I buy when I paid Hulu for ESPN+. And of course Hulu took away the Fox Sports Network, too, at the same time they increased the price.
