SoMAn Posted April 20, 2023 Share Posted April 20, 2023 14 minutes ago, CA OC Bills Fan said: I switched to YTTV around 30 months ago and have been very happy with it (mostly). You can share with I believe five family members. I signed up at my father's house in Rochester. I also had it at my apartment outside of Syracuse and my house in California. I log in with my own login for six different TVs and have recently started switching to using a Firestick on some because it seems to stream better via Firestick than via my Visio TVs. My father, wife, daughter (in Wisconsin) and son (in San Diego) all use YTTV on my account. The only thing is, every three months I need to log into each account from Rochester. So, for my son and daughter, I had set them up with a new gmail account only to use as their YTTV account so I don't get their emails and calendar notices. I have all of the accounts on my phone and I log in when I'm at my father's house. Someone above had mentioned that you need a good internet connection. For my apartment outside Syracuse, I have the lowest plan that Verizon offered and I had fantastic service. I actually had much worse reception at my father's house which had a faster internet. I think that was based on the TV and that's why I got a Firestick for there. Unfortunately, I got this after the season was over so I couldn't do a one to one comparison. But, at his house, even though I had no issues with Prime Video for movies or shows, for NFL games they were completely unwatchable and in some cases would just freeze up completely using the Visio Smart TV. With my laptop, I watched with no problems. As I said, my expectation was the Firestick would improve the ability to watch on his TV without needing to cast from my laptop. Thanks for the insight. So, the next question is regarding the technical side if it. So, if you have different people in different states using a single account, how does that affect the local station availability? Obviously, if your account is tied to a Rochester zip code, you can get local stations there. But I’m guessing the folks in California aren’t getting those local stations. Do they get any locals, even in their area? I can’t see how they could. It should be clear that some of us out of state fans might be thinking about setting up an account with someone in WNY (where all games are shown) and accessing the games without paying the Sunday Ticket fee. The Sunday ticket cost is actually a decent value, though it’s probably only needed here in Atlanta for maybe 8-10 games, with the expectation that there will be a fair number of nationally televised games and some others shown regionally, depending on what the networks believe will have the most viewership that week. Even at $350, it still beats dropping a wad of cash in a noisy sports bar where the server doesn’t have enough sense to wait until a TV timeout to see if you need anything else. 😊 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fergie's ire Posted April 20, 2023 Share Posted April 20, 2023 I use SlingTV instead of YTTV. It's cheaper (40 bucks a month). You have to choose between a package that includes ESPN which can only be used on one device at a time, and a package with NFL Network that can be watched on multiple devices. What's nice is you can switch packages any time instantly and there is no fee. So, if you like NFL Network and have that every day but there is a game that is only on ESPN, you can switch to the ESPN for that day only (or vice versa). If you want Rezone channel, that's like an extra 10 dollars a month. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ColoradoBills Posted April 20, 2023 Share Posted April 20, 2023 I find it interesting that the "early bird" discounts are up June 6th (just over 6 weeks away), and no advertisement is on streaming or cable TV services. Because of this board I have told friends about it because most didn't even know the pricing options. Going to be a lot of fans shocked when they have to pay $489.00 for NFL Package with Redzone starting June 7th. I personally am running out of time deciding if I dump Sling and go to YTTV or just by the package alone. 10 minutes ago, fergie's ire said: I use SlingTV instead of YTTV.

DQW87 Posted April 20, 2023 Share Posted April 20, 2023 Thinking seriously of switching to YTTV from DTV streaming. Just wanted to know from anyone using YTTV now of anything they don't like about it? Is the NFL Network available on YTTV? Is there any major channels they don't get? I think it would almost be the same price for me to get YTTV with the ST included at the early discount as it was for DTV Streaming. DTV Streaming cost $10 for unlimited cloud DVR as YTTV is free.

I think no A&E and History channel. No MLB network or NHL network. Yes to NFL Network. I miss those but not a dealbreaker. dvr is great also.

I had the other (blue I think?). Most games are available on plus, but I think it was the first game (Rams) that was not. So, I just went online to my account settings and switched my package from Blue to Orange and then went back to Blue the next day. I had actually messaged with customer service and they said I could, in theory, change back and forth every day. Since the monthly charge is the same and it switches instantly (unlike other subscriptions that make you play out the month), it just stays the 40 buck charge. Just now, fergie's ire said: I have.

No real complaints here. Took a little getting used to the layout coming from cable, but it's not a huge learning curve. FYI, if you have T-Mobile for a cell carrier, I believe they're still running their promotion of giving you $10 off per mo. for 12 months with YTTV. Not for sure they are, but they still were last month. Edited April 20, 2023 by Billz4ever Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No internet provider at all means no NFL games on your TV. Sure you could try to watch them through "over the air" signals delivered to your phone or tablet....Good Luck with that! Great info here.

No, your YTTV subscription needs to remain active during the ticket length. You would need to get the non-YTTV version (youtube primetime channel version). That's also $100 off right now, but would cost you $349 without redzone or $389 with. Edited April 20, 2023 by Billz4ever 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Plus it has pay annually discount too where on my phone app didn't see a discounted annual option. So actually only costing me $10 a month by just paying annually. Thats a big discount from just signing up through my iphone app, plus got 2 more months free. So I got the first 15 months (year plus 3 free trial months) for $120 compared to $238 for the first 15 months had I just signed up through the apple YouTube app...I mean that is a 50% savings different just based on where you sign...crazy different. For $120, I can get behind that and went ahead and did that! $10 a month is better than $17 a month.

Yeah basically I think they add a surcharge if you buy it through Apple, since the appstore takes a cut. Definitely subscribe through youtube directly via browser for the actual price. For what it's worth, I consume a LOT of youtube, and I find premium well worth the price. Not having ads on any of my devices, as well as the ability to download videos for offline consumption on my ipad (useful for traveling) has been worth it. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Definitely subscribe through youtube directly via browser for the actual price. For what it's worth, I consume a LOT of youtube, and I find premium well worth the price. Not having ads on any of my devices, as well as the ability to download videos for offline consumption on my ipad (useful for traveling) has been worth it. I consume a lot too...and I am already in love 30 minutes in with the no ad stuff. Definitely no going back now ha Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When I go to get youtube premium on my iphone, it automatically opens my youtube app on my iphone to go to sign up. And when it does, its $15.99 with just a 1 month free trial an no option for a discount by paying annually. BUT...when I go to my computer and go to youtube on my browser, its only $11.99 a month has a 3 month free trial instead of 1. Plus it has pay annually discount too where on my phone app didn't see a discounted annual option. So actually only costing me $10 a month by just paying annually. Thats a big discount from just signing up through my iphone app, plus got 2 more months free. So I got the first 15 months (year plus 3 free trial months) for $120 compared to $238 for the first 15 months had I just signed up through the apple YouTube app...I mean that is a 50% savings different just based on where you sign...crazy different. For $120, I can get behind that and went ahead and did that! $10 a month is better than $17 a month. Thanks for the heads up on the price difference bro, appreciate it. Awesome. Don't forget you also have access to YouTube music as well. Very well worth the $10 a month IMO. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
