Made my call, they offered to match YouTube's price but nothing else so i cancelled, no offer of suspension.

Strange New Worlds await me...

That is a decent price i would have stayed for that. That is odd about suspension, I havent heard of anyone not doing that. I have about 6 weeks left on my suspension. I expect to hear from them in the last two weeks.

Just FYI - today is the last day to save $100 on Sunday Ticket this year. This applies to YTTV customers and/or those who just buy it on YouTube.

More issues at critical times for YoutubeTV.....


https://www.tomsguide.com/news/youtube- ... ed-to-hulu


With YouTube TV's logo emblazoned on the NBA Finals court for the Heat vs. Nuggets, you might think that was the best place for cord-cutters to watch the NBA Playoffs live streams. Unfortunately for some, that was not the case.

A series of angry tweets from YouTube TV subscribers show that the service cut out during the last minute of the NBA Finals. As you'll see below, users posted the 'rainbow bars' color testing grid pattern to report YouTube TV's feed of Game 5 briefly dying during the pivotal minute. This incident raises concerns about whether YouTube TV will be able to handle NFL Sunday Ticket, which Google is taking from DirecTV.

As someone who switched from YouTube TV to Hulu + Live TV, I feel a little relief at having dodged this bullet (as I was watching the game). Glitches like these unfortunately tend to just happen (I certainly saw them on Sling TV). These are three of the best cable TV alternatives, but the more glitches you get, the more you'll think about going elsewhere.


This issue seems to have been somewhat isolated, however, as one Tom's Guide staffer who was watching the game on YouTube TV notes he didn't see this error. The below footage (h/t @thomaschung408) is not the kind of thing anyone would want to see, though, especially when the Nuggets and Heat were separated by a mere point with less than a minute left.


Here's video footage of the glitch, which shows the feed returning during an instant replay with 24.7 seconds left in the game. At that moment, Denver's Kentavious Caldwell-Pope headed to shoot free throws, after making a huge steal that those experiencing the glitch missed live.

Prior to that steal, the Nuggets had just missed, and the Heat needed to score at least one point to send the game to overtime and avoid elimination. Based on the above video and the tweet embedded below, it seems as if the feed cut out for around half of a minute.

User @scooterstakes noted that this glitch came after YouTube TV's recent price hike:

Analysis: Is YouTube TV ready for NFL Sunday Ticket?
A big question bought up by one user shouting at YouTube TV (replying to the service's official Twitter account) is what do these glitches mean for YouTube TV's upcoming NFL Sunday Ticket offering. @Timme_Duncan pondered "Just imagine when NFL starts & they’re trying to stream 8 games at once on this 'tv service.'"

A Tom's Guide reader writing in reminds us, though, that DirecTV wasn't a great Sunday Ticket host either. In the past, DirecTV had to refund money for its fails.

Sports blog Saturday Down South found more folks curious about YouTube TV's ability to handle Sunday Ticket, including @Herschal, who wrote "how are you planning to compensate everyone that has had multiple games throughout this NBA Playoffs cut out, stop working altogether or just not show up in the app anymore? Are you kidding me? You’re not ready for the NFL Sunday Ticket."

We still see YouTube TV as one of the top cable TV alternatives, thanks to YouTube TV's key plays and its multiview. But issues like this glitch need to be ironed out so they don't ruin other elimination moments in future NFL live streams.

Holy shit:



Edit: Okay, not quite what i thought, looks like they'll be broadcasting NFL Redzone, not their own with Andrew Siciliano:



But good news is DTV Stream and ATT Uverse will now carry NFL Network and DTV is keeping it...

A lot of talking heads guessed NFL Network was gone from DirecTV. Nice to see it staying.

But I hope they don’t treat it like the NHL Network where DirecTV maroons it in the highest price tiers.

I thought it would be gone too.

Will Redzone be part of standard package or higher tier only?

I guess it depends on how many of their few remaining NFL customers they want to continue to drive away.

Kind of irresponsible by "Don Klevman" or whoever that was to show a Sunday Ticket branded image with this announcement, because it's clearly not Sunday Ticket.
