The truth is there is no one service that is right for everyone. Each cord cutter is different with different needs. So one of my top tips is not to worry about what other cord cutters think is a good streaming service.
On top of all that there are so many to pick from: Sling TV, DIRECTV NOW, Hulu, PlayStation Vue, fuboTV, YouTube TV, and more.
What should you do to find the right streaming service for you? My recommendation is to try them all…
Unlike cable TV, cord cutting streaming services allow you to try them 100% free before you pay. So why not give all of them a try and then pick the service that is right for you?
Here is what I suggest all new and even current cord cutters do.
First, stop thinking of cord cutting like cable.
There are no long-term contracts like there are with cable. No need to worry about picking the wrong option because you can cancel at any time and most services offer a free trial.
Next, try them one at a time.
Often it is tempting to just try all of them at once; however, I would urge you to test them out one or maybe two at a time. That way you can give each one a real try and see if it has the channels you want and how you like the service overall.
Finally, don’t rush.
The last tip I wish all cord cutters would do is to not rush into picking a service or into cord cutting at all. Take your time, test it out, and do your research. You will find cord cutting is a lot more fun if you spend a bit of time to test it out before you take the leap.
