Cutting the cable, lets talk options and media setups

How do you like PS Vue? Which package did you get? I might get the second cheapest one, so I can watch ESPN News to watch my hockey team in the tourney. Is there a free trial period? How long is it?

Anyone else use it? How good is it?

I cut the cord last month and we went with PS Vue, Netflix, HD Antenna, and Firestick with Amazon Prime.

We use PS Vue mostly on the Firestick. It's good and has everything you need. At first we seemed to get a few interruptions, but it hasn't been happening for the last couple of weeks. I'm not sure what changed. But other than that problem initially, it's been good. It has everything you need and want.

It's a little more cumbersome to use than Direct TV (which we had before) on the Firestick. That's mostly because you have to do everything with the Firestick control. What I mean is that it takes more time to bring up the guide or change channels for instance. So that can be a little annoying if you're used to a cable or satellite control. But once you get the hang of it, it's not that bad.

We got the most expensive package because I wanted HBO too. It's still almost $70 less than what I was paying with Direct TV. So I'm happy so far. We've talked about buying the Fire TV, because it has better memory and a better processor. It would be much better for streaming PS Vue I have to think.
