What is YouTube TV
YouTube TV is a cable-free live TV experience that brings together all the things you love about live TV, without the hassle of renting cable boxes, scheduling complicated installations or committing to long-term contracts. With YouTube TV you get 70+ channels, from local networks like ABC, CBS, FOX and NBC and popular cable networks like Discovery, TNT, CNN, ESPN, FX and on-demand programming. YouTube TV also has unlimited cloud DVR storage space and you can have six accounts per household, so each member of the family can have their personal DVR and personalized recommendations.
