Sling TV, the popular streaming service known for its budget-friendly live TV options, today announced a major upgrade to its DVR service. Subscribers can now enjoy unlimited DVR storage for only $5 per month, eliminating recording capacity restrictions and offering even greater flexibility and control over their viewing experience. This was first leaked and spotted by Cord Cutters News about a week ago thanks to our readers. Now though Sling TV has made the unlimited DVR official.
This move comes as a significant enhancement to Sling’s existing DVR offerings. While all Sling TV customers currently receive 50 hours of free DVR storage, the new “Unlimited DVR” add-on allows viewers to record as much content as they desire without worrying about hitting storage limits.
With Unlimited DVR, Sling TV subscribers can:
- Record an unlimited number of shows simultaneously: No more conflicts or tough choices – record everything you want, whenever you want.
- Keep recordings for 9 months: Enjoy ample time to catch up on your favorite programs.
- Fast-forward through commercials: Save time and skip the ads with ease.
- Access recordings from any device: Watch your recorded content anytime, anywhere in the U.S. on any Sling TV supported device.
This upgrade positions Sling TV as a strong competitor in the increasingly crowded streaming market. By offering unlimited DVR storage at such a competitive price, Sling provides a compelling alternative to traditional cable and other streaming services with limited DVR capabilities or higher costs.
