It looks like 11 of Duke's next 16 games will only be shown on the ACC Network.
As a Comcast/Xfinity subscriber, I have signed up for free short term trials of Hulu+Live and YouTubeTV in order to watch select games in past years. However, with the volume of games over the next 2 months, I will probably just bite the bullet and sign up for a free trial plus two months (paid) of one of the streaming services which carries the ACCNetwork. If my family is pleased with the overall service, we will probably cut the cord for good.
A couple questions for folks who have already done this.
- It looks like Hulu and YouTubeTV are both $65/month. Does anybody have a recommendation of pros and cons for these services?
This c|net article seems to recommend YouTubeTV over Hulu. In past trials, I haven't been trilled with either service's DVR (skipping commercials or rewinding to re-watch a specific play) or program guide/browsing live TV?
- Do these services allow you to watch games on ACCN Extra (where Saturday's game will be broadcast)?
- Are there any options beyond Hulu+LiveTV and YouTubeTV?
Either way, I am bracing myself for 2 months of pitches for the SocketShelf, "Military Grade" night vision glasses, Copper-infused joint support contraptions, and whatever it is that Joe Namath is trying to sell to old people.
