Sounds like I'm in good company about being upset with Hulu + Live TV price hike to $100/month (w/ads). I've had this since 2018 when it was $39/month, so it's annoying to say the least.

I'm wondering if any of you use the Disney+/Hulu/ESPN Select bundle for $22/month. Seems like a good balance of live TV (ex. MNF on ESPN) and regular shows. I'm also wondering if you can watch ABC shows like Dancing with the Stars live on Disney+? Or are they only available the next day?

I've enjoyed Live for years, but an extra $10/month ($120/yr) every year just isn't worth it when I can watch many of the shows carried on channels like TV Land, CMT, etc. on other streaming platforms. (In short, Live feels like it's becoming a duplicative service.) This bundle feels like a good compromise and would love to hear your thoughts.

Thanks!

PRIORITIES: get as many LIVE NFL games as possible, & Big Ten Network\*

PREFER: watch on TV (vs phone), consolidate as much as possible for cost reduction

*We have BTN Plus, and NFL+ but do not have NFL+ Premium

What's everyone using for watching "TV" and/or subscription streaming services? Any good deals out there either? Everything is so expensive and it feels like you have to have multiple services, in order to get EVERYTHING. Are you guys bundling with internet and phone?

Talk to me about pros/cons please:

Streaming: Disney+ / Hulu / ESPN+ / HBO Max / Prime / Peacock / Paramount+ / Netflix

Cable/Live TV: Spectrum vs. Allo vs Direct TV vs YouTubeTV / NFL Sunday Ticket vs. Hulu + Live TV

Am I missing anything?

To watch NFL I know I need: Paramount+/CBS for Sunday afternoons, Peacock/NBC for Sunday nights, ESPN for Mondays, Prime for Thursdays, and Netflix for the holiday games. And that you need NFL Sunday Ticket for out of network games.

My household primarily cares about sports, but the price difference between "sports only packages" and "regular cable" don't seem to be all that different. In which case, I'd really like to be able to watch non-sports things as well.

I know search exists but I'm not seeing the answers for exactly what I want... thanks
