More standard streaming services now include live sports — Sunday Night Football on Peacock, CBS NFL games on Paramount+, Thursday Night Football on Prime Video — but if you want a comprehensive suite of sports channels, plus other live programming and local news, Fubo might be the right choice for you.
It came out on top for sports in our guide to the best live TV streaming services, and right now you can get the first month of Fubo’s Pro-tier subscription for $50 instead of $80. The Elite with Sports Plus plan is down from $100 to $70 for the first month, and the top-tier Deluxe package is $80 instead of the usual $110.
Whichever plan you choose, you’ll get more sports coverage than a human should care about — even the cheapest tier offers access to ESPN and ESPN2, FS1 and FS2, several NBC Sports channels, CBS Sports, Fubo’s own sports networks, and more. The Elite with Sports Plus tier includes NFL RedZone and nearly 100 additional channels, and is capable of 4K streaming quality. And, finally, the Deluxe plan gives you all of this plus international sports.
Fubo makes it easy to record games you want to watch later and every plan has unlimited DVR cloud storage with a nine-month expiration for recordings.
When you’re not watching athletic matchups, you can try out the rest of the features Fubo has to offer. When I tried it out for our guide, I found the service to be well-organized with a clean and easily navigable interface. It’s actually great at showing live content (though browsing through VOD content wasn’t as easy).
Almost every TV on the market today is a smart TV, but not every operating system is a winner. A media streaming device lets you pair the user interface of your choice with nearly any screen that has an HDMI port. In some cases, such as with older or less expensive smart TVs, a streaming stick or dongle can be faster and less messy than your TV’s built-in system.
At home, these handy gadgets make it easy for cord cutters to watch millions of hours of content streaming services offer without cable. And when traveling, a streaming player lets you watch your favorite content on a hotel set (without typing in a password or activation code). We tested streaming players from Roku, Google, Apple, Amazon, and others, assessing the usability and performance of each to come up with our list of the best streaming devices you can buy.
