Finally doing it.
I wanted NESN channel 628 - and to get in the choice package it costs me $113 a month with an hd dvr and 2 hd boxes.
Playstation vue just added NESN to their core package, which is $35 A MONTH!!!
I tried Vue but even though I have a robust connection it buffered quite often. I don't ever have this problem with Netflix, Hulu or Amazon. I canceled Vue.
that's weird.
what were you running psvue from?
My internet speed is only 10 mbps and vue has no lagging at all. My only issue is it takes a couple second to get into HD because of my slow speeds.
my only problem with vue is I only have cbs as a live local channel here.
Hopefully Ill be getting nbc and fox soon for live tv.
I cancelled this past weekend after having my service suspended for the last 5 months. They didn't even try to keep me, not that it would have changed my decison but just thought that was odd haha. Oh well, very happy with PSVue and Netflix on all 4 of my Amazon Fire TV's for $44.98 a month (+ xfinity 100mbps Internet for $49.99)
I went from paying DirecTV $118 per month to paying PSVue $40 per month. Still have all 4 of my TV's covered and have access to all the content I want/need. DirecTV better understand that a shift is taking place, and adjust, or the trickle is going to turn into a flood.
same here. Was paying about $115. now only $35 for Vue.
They have to realize in towns like mine where there isn't a cable option, but internet is starting to become an option- they will be ditched. Nobody is going to pay $115 plus the internet fees of an internet provider that doesn't offer cable.
Plus you couldn't even use on demand for directv without some stupid setup that never worked. The vue on demand is great.
Only way I would go back to directv is if they offered that $115 a month package down to about $60 a month tops. and I wouldn't want a contract either.

Sorry, but he said he moved from DirecTV to PSVue. so in the sentence "Only way I would go back to DirecTV" ... the phrase "from PSVue" is implied. I didn't realize you weren't following a conversation but were just posting random unconnected thoughts. Clearly it was my mistake.
Understood, but keep in mind that the "real" VOD version comes with limited commercials. The one that gets available right after it airs is the same file that was aired with all full commercials.
But at the end of the day if I miss a show and this is the only way to watch it without having to pay and arm and a leg, is a good trade off.

I mainly use the dvr on vue to watch the NHL games I miss if im doing something else while its on.
I don't think directv now has any on demand for channels like NESN where you can watch the replay of every game.
Eh I'd take the cloud DVR with a month of storage (longer if your shows repeat air), ability to fast forward and skip commercials and not have to memorize when my favorite shows fall off VOD.
PSVue is close, but not quite there for us yet. Their "Access" plan at $40 has 90% of the channels we watch for about $20 less than the "TV" part of my Cablevision triple play. Problem is if I unbundle, my internet and phone goes up $20, so I'm back where I started dollar-wise, but with less channel options.
