Holy crap. I had no idea it was $73 a month. I'm a little shocked that is a viable price point.

Is cable cheaper? I haven't used it for 15+ years so I have no comparison.

My Comcast is $78 for their highest tier channel lineup and DVR with no premium channels.

So kinda samesy except you can share the YTTV with five family members.

My Spectrum cable TV bill was around $85, but they also charged a $22 “broadcasting fee” on top of that. YTTV doesn’t have any added hidden fees (yet.) Spectrum makes a big deal advertising “no hidden fees,” so fuck them and their hidden fees. Their TV app was also horrible, constantly losing audio sync.
