In reply to Mark. Thank you!! I'm new to the moneypeach.com site and am quite impressed. I was thinking the exact same thing about the channel lineup for Sling. Other than CNN and mind rotting (but guilty pleasure) Bravo, not sure I'd watch any of them. If you know of any other options, post away please!

In reply to Alan. Good for you! It does take time to go through everything and find ways to get what you need for less money. But the trade-off in savings can be well worth it!

I have used Netflix (I still have Netflix) and Hulu in the past, but have found Sling to offer the best variety and bang for the buck. I had to get rid of cable because it was just too expensive, so I went with the HD antenna for my local programming and sports. My Sling and the Internet, in general, is being accessed through my cell phone hotspot. I also ditched my long time cell phone carrier for MCS Telecom which is a pre-paid mobile service that gives me unlimited, talk, text, data, and hotspot at the equivalent of $10 per month for 5 years. So, my total TV entertainment, cell phone, and Internet budget has been reduced to under $50 per month. I could carve another $10 off of that if I eliminate Netflix, which is most likely coming next.

Sling isn’t a bad option, though I prefer the Hulu/Netflix/Antenna combo. Depends on your life’s desires. Also, I feel like Sling hasn’t upped their game in a bit, when YouTube and Directv are now showing up to the game.

In reply to Amy Dunnum. We wrote the post 2 years ago, that's why the comments are from back then. However, we do update the post information regularly. :)

This is July 2018.. Why are all these comments so old? I’m interested in what it can do for me now, not 2 yrs ago. Since Sling TV was started by Dish Network, would it help any with the signal that I have a Dish Network antenna on my roof already?

In reply to Brittany. Hi Brittany! Great question but my answer is going to help much. I think the two main service providers (Cox & Century Link) are the only ones able to provide high speed, consistent, and quality internet service for the right cost. The other choices are not quite there yet - at least here in Phoenix.

Hey!

Question for you, what do you think is the most affordable internet service here in Phoenix? Sling sounds great and we are considering it. But I am also trying to cut down the internet bill as well.

Not much of a channel lineup. For the price this doesn’t seem like any sort of “deal” to me.
