Can you elaborate on what options exist? I’m technically inclined and have yet to find a better cheaper alternative to YouTube TV which my not so inclined wife can use to watch news channel on our Apple TV.
Hey, sorry if there was any confusion, but when I spoke of work arounds I was specifically addressing that OP’s mention of things like SmartTubeNext.
But YouTube TV is just one “cable alternative” in the US. Off the top of my head there’s SlingTV, FuboTV, Hulu+Live, and Philo. As far as pricing goes, I can’t point you to the cheapest option because I don’t have much use for those services. I do know that Sling TV is pretty cheap. I usually sign up for SlingTV once a year during NHL playoffs and it’s something like $20 bucks with a “one month half-off new sign up discount”. So I assume the normal base price is $40ish a month.
Thanks for the explanation. I’m desperate to find a cheaper alternative but not to sacrifice my sanity with a solution my wife doesn’t understand. We literally only watch one or two news channels for an hour or so a night. There has to be a better way!
Well in that case I’d recommend trying SlingTV. It’s a lot cheaper than YouTube TV and if all you want is access to cable news channels that should cover it. SlingTV’s app is as straight-forward as any other too so your wife shouldn’t have trouble navigating it. Like I said earlier, they also offer the first month at a 50% discount so even if you don’t like it you aren’t gonna be on the hook for too much.
I’m going to seriously check this out. Thanks, bud.
