This topic came up on another site I'm on, and is a constant, ongoing discussion. So, I thought I start a thread here to see what other subscribe to for their viewing pleasure.
We've been with Dish since 2005. We upgraded to 4K equipment (inside and outside) last year. We carry the Flex Pack with locals and the outdoor package added. Their most basic programming package. We access any channels not offered in the Dish package using Apple TV 4k. In all honesty, I doubt we'll keep Dish past the end of the contract when it expires in 2019. Prices just keep climbing with no end in site. High speed internet access is through our local cable provider.
Between the apps offered on Apple TV, and those on the Android tablet (Google) I got with my Vizio P series TV we lack for very little as fas as access to TV content. Truth be known, we watch Amazon Prime, Netflix, and hulu 75% of the time, local stations and sports the other 25%. And I've got an outside OTA antenna that pulls in 24 stations plus all locals. I'm also going to side load Kodi for Apple TV 4K some time in the near future and give it a try. At the lakehouse we have a cable modem with Apple TV boxes on both TVs. We've tried Fire TV and Roku, and liked both, but since Apple started offering the Amazon Prime app there was no need to keep them. Anyway, Siri will make you lazy. Just tell her what you want to watch and there it is.
Like most, I'm always looking for ways to keep TV subscription costs to a minimum while still getting the content I want.
So, what you guys and girls got? How do you watch?
