Yeah, just saw the tweet too. This sucks, and my story's the exact same as you. Just switched over from PSVue. Don't know where else to go now regarding streaming services for FSSW. Any ideas?

bye bye YTTV, hello hulu

I have to think this won't last. Big12 country just lost a bunch of content. Good thing we're SEC, but there a lot of unhappy Big12ers right now.

Pretty much all of Texas sports watchers won't be using YouTubeTV now. That's a big chunk of change I have to think that YoutubeTV is leaving on the table. And since everyone's a free agent it seems like when it comes to TV watching, there's no downside to cancelling or barrier of entry regarding leaving or joining a streaming service.

The Astros, Rockets, Rangers, Stars, Big12, Mavericks, and Spurs are now not available on YoutubeTV. They're about to see a pretty big exodus in the state I have to think.

Thinking hulu

Dish Network stopped carrying Fox Sports regional channels last year and announced that they basically wouldn't even try to bring them back. I've been using a relative's directv login for the Fox Sports Go app for Mavericks games...not sure what other options are out there.

I've had YouTubetv since fall of 2017 and loved it even through their $15/month price hike. I'll watch every stars and rangers game. Will they be dropping my rate? Doubtful. I'm out.

Weird...I have AT&T TV and have Fox Sports Regional. Even stranger, I have both the Dallas (where I live) and Oklahoma versions available

so are they lowering their monthly service fee?

I've given up and just got an antenna for our TV. Kicking it old school.

A little bit worrisome trend. I've also been annoyed that I haven't had FSN since last summer on Dish.

Hulu pretty much has it all.

ESPN/SECN for A&M, FSSW for Stars, Fox and NBC for soccer, typical NFL schedule on regular networks, golf if you're desperate, Olympics channel for track & field/marathons. Only thing I don't get is my Astros and thats because I'm in DFW.

I switched to YTTV close to a year ago and prior to that I had DirecTV here in CS and it would almost always blackout Stars and Mavs games on FSSW.

Won't be switching though. Can just easily stream any of those games on reddit.

What stream do you use and how do you cast to your TV?

I had PS Vue for 3 years for the exact same reasons. I loved their sports package. We switched to Hulu at Christmas and have been very satisfied.

Usually bufferstream on reddit and just HDMI from laptop to tv but there are a number of users I've found quality HD streams for on certain games I don't get.

I just google reddit and the sport I'm looking for and have never had any problems finding something if not available on Direct or YTTV.

You wouldn't get Astros games in Houston with Hulu either. AT&T TV and FuboTV are the only in market streaming options.

Well, and r/mlbstreams.

In Houston we still get all of the Rangers games on FSSW. All of Texas is the home market for both the Astros and Rangers. I can see why no provider in DFW would pickup AT&T Sports Houston. I find it a bit odd that Comcast in Houston still has FSSW unless its a carryover from a long term deal back when the Astros and Rockets were on there.

Astros and Rockets have been on AT&T Sports Net (or whatever it is this week) for a while now, so it's actually been tough to get them on most providers unfortunately.

I thought Sling doesn't have Fox Sports SW either?

Keeping it as I don't give a **** about the big 12 or dallas teams.

Kewl. Thanks for your contribution.

For us, YTTV is perfect because I can get all the ESPN's and SECN without an additional package fee to watch the Ags. That's all I have time for these days. YTTV has been outstanding in terms of the interface, dvr, app, and picture quality.

But it's hard to find a one-stop-shop if you watch every multiple pro sports...or watch bdf games.

Sounds like the same reasons we have it. I'll watch practically any football game on YTTV during the season, and then cancel it after the Super Bowl. Between Amazon Prime and Netflix we can find something else to watch the rest of the year, and it being $54/month now is just not worth it for as little as we watch it outside of football season.
