I am the same way. I have like 4 channels I want and I would be happy to pay for them. But I do not care about 99% of any of them on any subscription plan. So just not worth it.

Does anyone know if Sling is location dependent? I know that Netflix is, what you see is based roughly upon where in the world you are because of licensing for that part of the world.
Where in the world that they think you are. If they get confused, you get the wrong programming.
You're experienced this problem before - I recall your posts last or two years ago about that issue.
Yeah, right now Netflix seems okay, but everything else thinks that I am in Canada when I am in Texas.

I cancelled my cable and am going with sling.tv. There are about 3 channels I watch to watch live sports and that is pretty much it, so considerable savings over traditional cable, still expensive.

@brianlittlejohn now that makes sense.

Yepp. We have Cable Internet, but not cable TV. Cut our Cable bill by $40 bucks.
-
I tried out Playstation Vue - expensive - $65 for the package I want including HBO, but cheaper than the $130+ I pay for cable.
But my internet will go up with I cancel cable and phone, so I won't be saving even $65. Time to pull the trigger.
Playstation Vue is OK, still not as nice as cable though - and the DVR functionality is a bit weird.
-
My Cable bill is dropping roughly $60/month (half of that is taxes on the cable tv side) so the $20 for sling.tv isnt bad.

@brianlittlejohn Sling is supposed to be beta testing their cloud DVR product starting this month on Roku devices. From what I read, they will eventually expand it to include other devices.

Huh... if it's anything like Playstation Vue on Roku vs PS Vue on Amazon Fire TV, don't expect much.
