That just seems like a lot for a true American sports fan to be without for a monthly cost which is at best the same vs YouTube TV/Hulu (and they do have the Turner channels). I know tastes are subjective but that's 3 out of 4 of the major American sports leagues and still not touching on being unable to watch the AEW pro wrestling shows (TNT) or a large chunk of the March Madness NCAA Men's Basketball tournament (the games in the first few rounds are spread out over CBS/TNT/TBS/TruTV).

A fuboTV (American) sports fan is unable to watch the weekly NBA and NHL games on TNT and are also missing MLB playoff games on TBS. The co-founder of the Philadelphia Film Critics Circle, Stephen lives in suburban Philadelphia with his wife and two sons.The lack of Turner channels (notably TNT and TBS) is a huge deal and especially for a service which is geared towards the sports fan. Stephen Silver, a technology writer for The National Interest, is a journalist, essayist and film critic, who is also a contributor to Philly Voice, Philadelphia Weekly, the Jewish Telegraphic Agency, Living Life Fearless, Backstage magazine, Broad Street Review and Splice Today. Part of the deal was to stage virtual fights between Mayweather and other boxers and fighters of the past, which would be available exclusively on Fubo TV, although no announcements have been made since then. In April, Fubo TV announced that it had merged with virtual entertainment technology firm FaceBank - the company responsible for the Tupac Shakur hologram - and soon after that a nnounced a deal with boxing champion Floyd Mayweather, in order to "create and manage the world-renowned retired professional boxing champion and promoter’s digital likeness, 'Virtual Mayweather.'" The idea of such services is to provide some percentage of what cable does at a lower price point, and even with the price hikes, the vMVPD subscriptions remain more affordable than most cable bills.įubo TV launched in 2015, and was originally focused narrowly on streaming on international soccer matches, before expanding in 2017 to cover more sports, and later on television programming in general.
