Anyone using Youtube TV?

From what I read you get six different accounts for cloud dvr but only 3 concurrent streams. I may be incorrect if someone is in the know I’d love a definitive answer.

Is there a 1800 number ? I keep getting a robot chat that sux. That’s a deal breaker for my elderly a$$. Lol.

Currently, we have 5 tv's logged in to my YouTube TV account and no issues.

YT TV is def GTG.

As mentioned, pick up an Apple TV 4K and take it with you when you go to to your 2nd home, or just buy 2 and leave one there.

Also with YT TV, watching TV on your phone, tablet or PC, etc. is seamless as well. No BS 2-factor authentication, etc. needed on any device...sign in once and that's all you need.

I do believe you but I’m not sure if it’s a Mistake on their part.

We switched from DirecTV to YTTV last year. DirecTV couldn’t have cared less when I called to cancel after being a customer for 15 years.

Pros: Save about $100/mo. at our primary residence and no separate account needed at our vacation condo (Hulu is more restrictive), so big savings and convenience; no weather-related missed recordings; no YTTV equipment; easy to switch later if that’s what we decide

Cons: not crazy about interface and controls, but can live with them; doesn’t stream in 4K; live sports delayed a couple of seconds (don’t text with friends during games); internet down = no streaming; no app available on older Samsung smart TVs.

Overall: savings and flexibility make it a no-brainer for us. There are only 2 of us and rarely have more than 1 screen going and we only watch TV on TVs rather than devices.
