Thought I'd post this an get the ball rolling on this, w/ March madness looming ahead this week.

So far I havent been able to find an answer to a question I have. Which would be is there any where one could watch the Tournament games via "On Demand" vs Live stream

It seem not, the NCAA March Madness app which you can download an stream all the games as long as you have a content provider (such as Cable TV, Satelite sub) Although they do say that CBS games are not available on Android TV. Not sure exactly what that means but I take it to mean that "Not on an Android TV BOX" but are available on your phone. But it seems to indicate that games are only available Live streaming, with only "highlights" an "some" classic games available via On Demand. Which doesnt really sounds like 1 could watch any of the tournament games on demand.

Other options include:
Paramount+
Sling TV
Fubo TV
Hulu Live
Playstation VUE
Directvs Now "Live a Little" package. <--no DVR service

Do these services offer a DVR service? I guess Sling TV Does. Limited to 50 hours w/ out the DVR+? Course no CBS games. but this could work i guess. Seems 1st month is 20$?? For new customers obviously.

Just order YouTube TV for one month to get all the games on TBS, TNT, TruTV and CBS. It has an unlimited DVR. You can watch YTTV on your phone, tablet, Firestick, Roku device, smart tv or computer.
Co-signed to this. You could try and maneuver a million ways here, but this is the easiest way to accomplish streaming the games. Plus you can adjust your on-screen guide so all four channels are right at the very top beside each other. And you'll get the access into the March Madness app to stream through your YTTV credentials.

Went w/ YTTV cuz apparently after the Dish hack, sling is not available since their payment system is also Dish's, so you cant even sign up for service, either thru the website or via CSR phone call.

YTTV has a 2 week free trial so i'll give that a whirl an likley cancel b4 they charge me $68. (apparently new customers can get it for $68 for the 1st 2 months)
