[Shop-talk] tv streaming stsuff

[Jim Stone]

We tried several streaming services and switched to YouTubeTV 4 or 5 years ago.  All of the channels you mentioned are included with their base packages. We watched it on both a Roku TV and via Amazon Firesticks with no problems. That said, we recently bought a new TV that used Google’s operating system and it works even better on that.  (I even put an old TV in the shop with a Firestick. 😄)

No complaints, other than the fact that the price keeps going up, just like everything else.
