If you pay for ESPN+, you can login to the app on whatever device you're using and stream away, Roku included. On Roku, download and open the ESPN app. Once there, you're given the option to sign in using your TV provider login and/or your ESPN+ login. Once you've signed in with the latter, you can stream all the corresponding content. I'm currently signed in through my YouTube TV subscription for access to the ESPN TV channel content and with my ESPN+ login for its content.
Greek Soccer fans who want to cut the cord may find this interesting: https://www.cordcuttersnews.com/sli...ls-after-adding-a-new-greek-language-package/
It seems like Fubo is doing well lately: https://www.yahoo.com/entertainment/fubotv-skinny-bundle-announces-subscriber-162840334.html
Great news. Their service is great. And the dvr is second to none. You can record as many shows at once as you like. And you can take your recordings on the go as well. Had the service since August and I’m very satisfied.
Good for them but the lack of ESPN is appalling. Sure they still have RAI Italia for the Serie A games but ESPN have a lot of other sports I'm interested in (NBA, CFB Playoffs, NFL Wild Card game, MLB)
I assume a lot of football fans on Comcast and DirecTV have signed up with Sling Latino or Fubo Latino to get BeIN.
Yes. And Dish Latino subscribers who want Univision, Unimas and Galavision probably also joined Fubo.
This is the issue for those of us who watch more than soccer. Fubo was the first streaming provider I tried and I thought it was quite good (over the course of a summer). However, I knew then that I couldn't stick with it because I watch college football and college basketball (among other sports) and I can't follow them adequately without the ESPNs. That said, it sounds like Fubo is moving toward a deal with ESPN. This is from an article published two days ago: Fubo Co-founder and CEO David Gandler acknowledged that there’s one big, missing piece — ESPN. But he added, “As a startup, we obviously are talking to everybody … At some point in time, when it makes sense for both sides, that deal will come to fruition.”
Well, I’m grandfathered on an old Fubo package for $10 per month which gives me both BeINs, GolTV HD, and TyC HD (as well as the Univision channels, which I already have on DirecTV, but as the BeIN debacle shows these could come in handy too someday). I don’t think Fubo offers this package anymore. I think their current Sling Latino is a little more expensive (I think $18) and offers Fox Deportes as well. So I think it costs more than Sling, but you get more. It depends on what you already have and if you will watch the extra content. The interface works well, the streaming quality is good, and you can archive games for watching later. I don’t have experience with Sling, but if you just need BeIN, it’s a less expensive alternative.
First of all, you don't need fubo 'Latino' to get the beIN channels. All of the channels (including the streaming/CONNECT channels are part of the main package which is $45/month). What service you go with will depend more on what other channels you want. if Fubo is offering all the channels you need (and they do have a great package except for the lack of ABC local affiliate and ESPN), then Fubo is likely the best deal. If you need channels not being offered by Fubo, then just do a comparison of DirecTV, Sling, YouTubeTV, Hulu. You can add the beIN channels to whatever other streaming service you choose for just $10/month ($15 w/DVR service) via SlingTV Int'l Sports stand-alone package. Hope that helps, SA www.soccertvblog.com
Actually. You can still watch the Connect channels by authenticating through BEIN Connect app/website. So yes, Fubo Latino is all he would need
Thanks for the replies. Ended up going with sling latino plus dvr as I only needed both bein channels. I dont remember where I read this but it seems fubo's dvr doesnt have a fast foward option?
Which provider would you recommend I go with for the duration of the MLS playoffs? I need FS1, Unimas, and ESPN Deportes, because I refuse to listen to Taylor Twellman any longer. Neither Sling nor Hulu have Unimas, and Fubo doesn't have ESPN. So I'm thinking DirecTV Now with their "Todo y Mas" package for $45/mo might give me what I'm looking for? Incidentally, does anyone else find it annoying that instead of presenting a nice, text-only, legible list of channels, all of these streaming services show their channel list as a grid of tiny, illegible logos? I have good eyesight, but c'mon people.
I think for you DirecTV Now would be the best option. Although for most other people it is not an option because there is no beIN.
I just noticed this week that RCN Nuestra Tele (Colombia) is now on Fubo. As of last night though the guide grid listing and programming were inaccurate but the channel works. Now people can watch Colombian soccer every week with Fubo. Here's a link: https://www.cordcuttersnews.com/fubotv-cuts-the-price-of-their-latino-add-on-adds-nuestra-tele/
Kind of a high-profile cord cutter here Finally cutting the cord this month. What is currently the best/most affordable combination of US subscription services to make sure I can see soccer and have a good DVR and/or access to catalogued games? Thank you!— Subscribe to GrantWahl.com (@GrantWahl) January 4, 2019
The thing is DVR quality is still best with Dish. No cord cutting option comes close to the technology Dish has.
He could just be doing a double take on what hes paying for cable TV and saying "hell no." Too many people pay too much for such shite service
