It has like 20 channels for 19 bucks. Things like tnt, tbs, cnn, weather channel, all of ESPN, hgtv, food network, Disney, family channel, history, a and e, lifetime, plus others. Dish network operates it. That covers most of the cable I watch. A good antenna covers the broadcast stations which goes into a different input on your tv so you toggle back and forth between inputs. Sling also lets you stream it like you get it on cable, but many channels also have a dvr feature which lets you play something that came on hours earlier or you can watch certain shows like you would on Netflix or Hulu.

I cut the cord not over price but over them more than doubling what I paid. That just makes you feel used.

You should also look at internet providers. For instance, there is a local internet provider who with the internet subscription they give you a roku box and espn3 for free. It is there attempt at market share.
