The one thing I can't wrap my head around with cable, though, (at my parent's place when trying to catch the last few minutes of the Bucks opener) are channel numbers. On YoutubeTV, I just scroll down to TNT in its obvious grouping with other similar channels. I spent several minutes trying to find TNT on their nonsensical Comcast guide and finally turned it on with like 30 seconds left. Get rid of archaic channel numbers.
I did a free trial of YouTube TV to see if I wanted to ditch cable. I had the opposite opinion. It was annoying that I had to scroll to find a channel every time. With channel numbers, I can just type in the number on the remote. Obviously, if I switch to YouTube, I'll get used to it and it will go faster.
I do agree, that sometimes the channel order seems nonsensical. With mine, they are at least grouped somewhat. The cable news channels are together, sports tend to be together, etc. Though when channels get added, they stuff them wherever.
