What is You tube TV?

YouTube TV was launched in 2017 and was limited to a small number in North America. However, that changed in 2019, when it expanded widely, helping all 210 markets in the area. It also helped to expand the collection of channels on YouTube. These days, more than 70 channels, including many national networks such as CNN, Disney Channel, ABC, TNT and FOX, are broadcast on YouTube. This platform is a live TV service from Google.

It can be said that the target audience is those who do not want to pay for cable or satellite TV. This is smart because if you subscribe to this service, you will get many benefits While it has a lot in common with other live streaming services like AT&T TV Now, Sling TV and Hulu + Live TV, YouTube TV offers a combination of unique features that make it very attractive.

This space is the only live broadcast service that includes PBS stations and content, and the selection of more than 70 main cable channels and broadcasting in it is constantly growing. It may sound a bit exaggerated, but Google has done a lot to differentiate its live TV service from competitors and attract customers, most notably the unlimited cloud-based DVR.

YouTube TV is not part of YouTube; Google treats them as separate entities. There are some areas where the two overlap, as happens in the Originals interface.

If you want to access both, you will need two different applications on your devices. Originally, YouTube TV was only available on a limited number of devices, but now you will find it on most 4K TVs from brands such as Sony, Samsung, LG, etc. and all major live streaming operating systems. . At the end of 2019, Google announced that YouTube TV has more than 2 million paid subscribers.

Supported devices

While the list of supported devices is not so extensive, you most likely have a device around you that can run YouTube TV.

This app is available on Android TV, Apple TV, Chromecast and Xbox One. It is also compatible with LG and Samsung smart TVs produced in 2016 and later, all Xbox One, Android and iOS models. As of February 1, 2021, the platform is the only live TV service on the PlayStation 4 and 4 Pro.

In terms of content selection, YouTube TV hosts most of the same channels on AT&T TV Now and Sling TV. The biggest difference is the price of the complete YouTube TV package. Unlike other services, you should be very unlucky if YouTube TV does not have the channel you want (unless it is one of the few dedicated plugins). These restrictions are said to be easing: In February 2021, information from Google indicates that Warner Bros. features, including HBO and Cinemax, will be downloaded as proprietary options this year, and HBO Max The platform will be available in May, a move that largely seeks to attract viewers from services such as AT&T TV Now, Amazon Prime Channels and Hulu. Unfortunately, YouTube TV became the latest live streaming service after unsuccessful negotiations with Sinclair Networks, which removed Fox Regional Sports and YES Networks from its channel list.

These channels have been removed since February 29, 2021. Controversy over the contracts of at least 40 teams in baseball, the NBA and the NHL is expected to affect. As with any live service, the available local channels depend on the offers that YouTube TV guarantees for your area.



Is Youtube TV a competitor to Netflix?

Although another live service seems to have joined the ranks of Netflix, Now TV, Amazon and others, YouTube TV is a little different. Viewers of the new service will watch live television on major US television stations instead of the full series on demand. These include Disney, Fox, SyFy, ESPN, FX, ABC and more.

It should be noted that viewers such as HBO, Game of Thrones, are not yet available on the service, although YouTube TV confirmed that negotiations are underway with several networks. Some of the requested content will be available, as YouTube TV will also include the original series provided for YouTube's Red shared service.

Benefits of YouTube TV

YouTube TV channels give you unlimited storage space where you can record. This means that you can watch your favorite shows in your spare time. One of the answers to what YouTube TV is is that there are no hidden costs. Everything you need to know is written in your contract. After purchasing a channel of your favorite options, you can use it at no extra cost. You can share your TV account with six different people. They can be your parents or close friends or anyone you want, and you can control them remotely, without even telling them. When using it on a mobile phone, you can use the picture-in-picture feature to watch. This feature allows you to watch YouTube TV in a smaller version on your mobile device. This way you can do other things while watching. Multitasking is a new feature of TV services.

Is live TV old?

Yes, it is, but many people are still eager to see what is happening at the moment, rather than looking for what they want. YouTube TV has a trump card, albeit an unlimited cloud DVR, in which subscribers can record as many programs as they want (even if they are all broadcast simultaneously on multiple channels). This means creating an online library that can be viewed on Netflix. Applications can be archived for up to 9 months before being automatically removed from the service. YouTube TV is basically a cheaper alternative to US cable TV, offering some live streaming without long-term subscriptions and proprietary hardware requirements.
