FuboTV

Cutting the cord doesn't mean you can't watch live sports or primetime shows. While the market for video streaming services is saturated, fuboTV is one of the few that primarily caters to sports fans. This "sports-first, but not sports-only" service combines 75+ channels of bona fide sports, news, and entertainment content, easy-to-use DVR capabilities, and reliable performance. The best part is that fuboTV covers practically every major sport and league at the college, national, and international level and is available on a wide range of platforms. It's as expensive as a standard cable subscription and is missing ESPN programming, but otherwise, fuboTV is a great experience for sports fans.

fuboTV's flagship subscription plan, simply called fubo, costs $39.99 per month for the first month, but that quickly jumps up to $44.99 per month after the introductory period. As noted, fuboTV is not cheap, and you must determine if its 75+ channels spread across the sports, news, and entertainment markets are worth it. These are not watered-down versions of channels, however; they are the real thing. You can watch the on-air channels, record live content to DVR storage, and binge through a good selection of on-demand shows and movies.
