Hard pass at $80/month. I ordered my antenna and if signal is decent I'll order my box

It's actually $95 a **** month (80+15 for local sports) , with a $20/month discount available today. I just started a free trial but I'll most likely switch to OTA next week. Mad pumped to be about to watch the Bulls!

I already have FuboTV. So I guess now I can watch the Bulls when if I feel like it.

I tried the month trial of Fubo and really enjoyed the product. High quality streams, tons of content. I'll probably get it again here in the Holidays especially with the Bulls on it.

I meant as a platform, they are competing in the same space.

Yeah, that's pretty pricey. OTA is great if you can get it working.

I'm from Brazil so, for my perspective, nothing's change. I signed a Team Pass (a plan that only allow me to watch Bulls games but do not exist anynore in League Pass for years- at least in the international LP) and the change of network do not affected us. For you guys, who signed NBA LP, anything changed?

I pretend never leave this plan. Its only R$ 18 a month, what, in US, would be 4$ or so.

How much? Hard pass!

Maybe a discount with Amazon Prime? That would be nice.

Which seems fairly in line with most cable/cable-like TV options.

I mean, geez, the Bulls are offering the games for free. People may not love the antenna option, but ultimately it appears there's going to be an app if you don't want to use an antenna and also don't want cable TV (I guess because you don't watch anything on it besides local sports). The rollout has obviously been slow and embarrassing, but it seems like there will eventually be all sorts of different options.

It seems like the only thing that would satisfy people is the Bulls offered a free or nominal cost (e.g. $5/month) streaming app. I'd be all for it, but it ain't coming.

YouTube TV is $40 cheaper.

Ehh, it's a little more complicated than that. (I'm a YTTV subscriber). After the initial promo period, the cheapest DirectTV package is $101.98. This is now more like YTTV, since neither contains CHSN. YTTV's base plan is $72.99/month. So, the difference is under $30/month, not $40. It's more like $40 once you add the package that has the RSNs, but that's just not available on YTTV, so in some sense you're getting "more" from DTV. And for me, I'm paying an extra $10/month on YTTV to get 4K content, which I understand is included at no extra charge in DTV (though they may have less 4K content - I don't know). I'm also a big tennis nut and have to pay a $10/month sports package add-on with YTTV to get it. So, for me to get out of YTTV what DirectTV offers in its $114/month package, I pretty much have to pay as much.

Yeah. Sounds like DirectTv is more expensive, but I don't know who has the more complete "other channels" in that lineup. But I'm not advocating for anybody. Just saw a number of frustrated comments.
