What’s most important to you when choosing a live TV streaming service?
UI and price are about equal when comparing these two services.
Sports. Because everything else you can find for free or on cheaper streaming services. So it’s mostly for sports lovers or live and local news lovers.
I give the win to Hulu because they have more to offer for the bang for the buck over CZcams TV
I cut cable tv , land line phone
Tried Mohu antenna with poor result( not sure why) for local tv
Next, kept high speed internet with Comcast ( only choice so far) returned all Comcast equipment and bought a Netgear router and Assis modem. Bought a Roku plug in for older Samsung tv. Subscribed to CZcams TV. My Xfinity internet is now $80/ month with my own equipment. Will recoup cost in 10 months.use. About $110/ month savings.
CZcams tv all day and it’s not even close.
For someone like me with homes in two different states, CZcamsTV is definitely the better option. I never have problems signing in, and it seamlessly switches local channels without any input from me. Also, the user interface is closer to cable (and thus simpler) and I can easily organize channels to fit my viewing choices. The sports options are perfect as well. With a FrndlyTV add-on (for A&E Networks/MeTV) I have everything I had with cable, for far less.
I picked up Hulu basic this last November on a Black Friday deal, and really enjoy that, so I can't really speak on the live, no real plans to go to the live plan.
A friend has CZcams TV live, your right on that service being good on sports, it's great in my opinion.
In the spring, I dropped the "live" service I had and picked up two on demand services, one I'll upgrade in the fall for college football
They are both too expensive
Hi guys - enjoy your channel. I routinely test these services out and keep notes. Here's some feedback I can share: My Dad lives about 20 min away, and I've set him up on our family plan. He's able to have his own profile and we haven't had any issues the last 2-3 years with him using it. #2 - As a subscriber to the NBA league pass on CZcamsTV (but not the 4k package) occasionally I was able to view 4k NBA games. I'm on the base plan.
Glad to hear it!
CZcamsTV 24/7 365
ROKU FREE TV - ONLY WAY TO GO LOL
me too 😂
I have a question that you may not be able to answer, but maybe you could point me to a YT channel or antenna product you recommend. We live 40 miles from a city with all the OTA channels. I bought and installed an outdoor antenna with 60 mile range that picks up all stations well except that the CBS antenna often has a weak or dropping signal. I have the antenna pointed - with an app - directly to that CBS location. I'd be happy to spend money for a quality antenna because we feel the Hulu, Disney ESPN+ bundle (without live TV) plus Prime would be all we'd need, if we had slightly better OTA. I appreciate your help!
@@rickbeyer6633 Tyler The Antenna Man.
Check out his recommendations for antennas.
@@rickbeyer6633 I gave a recommendation for where to go to get antenna information, but CZcams won't let it post.
I'm sure John and Nicole know who it is.
@@spaceghost4474 Thanks. Maybe try replying to this?
@@rickbeyer6633 We're seeing @spaceghost4474 recommendation. But, at any rate, we 100% agree with it. Tyler is the go to resource for antenna help.

I just got direct tv can u do an updated opinion on Direct tv & direct tv stream in 2024? Thanks
I was about to get DirecTV stream or cable but notice my wife an daughter watch movies on Disney so just switched to hulu but hopefully they make a review about it tho
We'll add it to the list.
I went with hulu because of more content. I think it's worth pointing out that although these are live tv services, they are anything BUT the ease of cable tv. The best user experience will always be actual cable tv but it's not the user BANK account experience we can tolerate, is why we ditched it for sure. I have been using a strategy over the last month or so- buying prime streaming video and building up my UHD streaming movie collection. It's amazing how many bargain bin deals you can grab on UHD movies from prime to stream. Once my collection of all my favorites are bought, I no longer am swayed to keep movie streaming apps because of the movies I love to see. Netflix and Max will eventually be dropped because I can just buy the UHD movie from prime and stream away. But hulu will always be needed here for the obvious reasons. In fact I think the most commonly juggled thing is how can I save money beyond the needed live tv services. If you're a prime member- buy your movies outright and let go of monthly subs just to see them come and go.
I totally agree with you about the cable experience.
I still think it's the best, but like you, I could no longer tolerate the sky high prices with all the hidden fees, and the bad service that I received.
Cable services brought all the trouble on themselves.
That's a great way to do it!
When you say buy UHD stuff from prime, if you were to cancel your prime account, would you still have the content? Or what happens if prime should decide to take the content away from you? Louis Rossmann did a video about, iirc, Sony, deleting stuff folks had 'bought.'
@@bikeny no plans to cancel prime. I believe you can download your purchased content for offline viewing too. I have heard that movies can be removed but it hasn't happened to me yet. I don't over think it. I buy movies at 5 -7 bucks and my titles are akways there to watch, unlike Netflix and such that certainly do drop content after a certain time period. Instead of hoping a movie is currently running on a streaming service, I have it. You could do the same buying dvd but I'm well past physical media now. Not into that any longer.
I have had both in the past. But they are not worth it to me. I don’t watch all those channels.
I mentioned trying Hulu again to my wife. Her first comment - they just had too many ads.
We don't like the ad load on Hulu either, but it's still a good bit better than what you'll find on linear TV - for now that is. 🙂
Unless you get the ad free version
I mean ads on normal cable 😂
Neither!
neither hulu or youtube doesnt have axs channel,i loved that channel for the concerts
There still is no perfect streaming service. Hulu+Live TV = No NBA TV channel, as as far as I can find, no way to get the NBA league pass. I will admit in July '23 the last time I looked there weren't any Hallmark Channels (Wife acceptability factor) but see that Hulu has them now. Also I agree with the filtering updates in Apr 2024 made CZcamsTV even worse.
Do Hulu live TV offer 4k
We covered that in the video 🙂 but, no, they only go up to 1080p currently.
I have a question Wouldn't that be easier people they're streaming Networks till they came down in price few years ago Netflix raise their price people started dropping them right and left so they went back to the old price most of the stations have the same thing on it and they wouldn't be able to function very well without a lot of customers
youtube live its like $57.00 for first 3 months
That's not their standard promo, but they offer something similar to that every so often. It's currently $10 off a month for the first three months. In the past they've offered a pretty good deal close to the beginning of football season.
For me, channel lineup is really a non-factor between these two services since Hulu added the two weather channels, so I now base my choice on the UI and price of both.
IMO the CZcams tv UI is hands down the best of the two.
The ability to arrange channels in the order I want, and to be able to remove channels from your live guide has pretty much spoiled me.
That, and the lower price (at this time) keeps me with CZcams tv.
I would definately use Hulu if I wanted the Hulu trio of extras, but if I only want Disney Plus (no adds), which I only use a couple of times per year, I can add the stand alone service for almost the same total cost.
I think Hulu with live tv has become a better deal for the total package, but I still prefer the convenience of CZcams tv.
Agreed, Hulu Live does offer a solid value with having the Disney bundle thrown in. But, like you said, the UI and general flexibility of YT TV make it the better option for most. If we needed a premium live service, it'd be YT TV.
I’d love to get get Hulu live but..
I have Hulu with ads at the moment
I despise the Hulu UI.
@@aladinsarsipeus 👍👍👍That terrible UI, along with their high price for the no adds version is what keeps me away too.
I won't get the add supported version, so that's that.
I have tried both services. In my opinion they are both now way overpriced. The Hulu interface is simply awful. I do have Hulu on demand ad free. To be honest I can find very little to record on live TV anymore and for people like me who do not care about sports local channels are pretty much useless. But between the two I agree that CZcams TV wins.
Sling Blue is all I need.
I agree about the Hulu UI.
It's cluttered and cumbersome, to be kind.
@@spaceghost4474 Ha, you're not wrong there. We don't like it at all and don't see them changing it anytime soon.
CZcams TV is completely trash it’s worthless. They can’t even offer any of their movie channels in full HD really CZcams TV in this day and age. I’m switching from CZcams TV to Hulu live TV because their picture quality is much better and their channels are in full HD not 720p. What’s wrong with CZcams TV these days everything.
Might as well just stick with satellite with those ridiculous prices lol
