YouTube TV vs. Hulu with Live TV is a contentious debate. Both cord-cutting offerings make the list of our best cable TV alternatives. Both offer all the four major broadcast networks, unlimited DVR space and multiple simultaneous streams.

In addition to the Live TV component, you also get full access to Hulu's online streaming library, which includes Hulu Originals such as Only Murders in the Building, Paradise, and Shogun. Catch up on popular movies like Dune 2, Ballerina, or Top Gun, or classics like the entire Twilight saga. Note that this is the ad-supported plan.

YouTube TV customers are currently unable to view ACC Network and other channels in the ESPN family due to an ongoing contract dispute between Disney-owned ESPN and YouTube TV (owned by Google). But there are plenty of free solutions available for college football fans who don’t want to miss a minute of college football action this weekend.

You can watch USA Network on DirecTV, which also comes with your local NBC station. New users are eligible for a five-day free trial through DirecTV when you sign up for one of its four packages. Every streaming package includes USA Network as well as CNBC, MSNBC and dozens of other channels.

Disney's latest round of streaming service price hikes go into effect Tuesday, with price increases being spread across standalone subscriptions for Disney Plus, Hulu and ESPN, as well as bundles and its live TV platform, Hulu Plus Live TV. The last time the company upped the costs of its streaming services was -- you guessed it -- October 2024.

YouTube TV customers could find themselves without ESPN, ACC Network and more channels right in the middle of the college football season.
