I dropped SpectrumTV and moved to YouTubeTV last fall.  But I still have no choice of internet providers, there's no fiber in my area so Spectrum cable it is.

When I unbundled they jacked up my internet rate and stacking YouTubeTV on top of it actually ends up being a little more expensive, but I also get a lot more channels with YTTV, and I have cloud-based DVR and stop/pause of live TV, which I lost when I just had the Spectrum streaming service.

So, there you have it. As always, it's clear as mud.

Did you consider Dish
They won't let me give blood anymore. The burnt orange color scares the hell out of the doctors.

I work from home often, the upstream speeds aren't fast enough.  

We do use Dish for our tailgate setup of course.

We have it from our HOA, built into that price. Includes two firesticks and all the channels we need. 

We also have rabbit ears, just in case of a hurricane.

I looked that up when I switched away from cable TV. I too have [expensive] cable internet because there's no competition--only other internet option I have is 1.5 Mbps DSL from AT&T. And no, that's not a typo. It's 1.5 Mbps. 

If I price a bundle from Cox with internet and TV, it's MUCH cheaper than internet + Hulu Live TV... For the first year. After that first year promo pricing goes away, it goes up massively, enough that when I compared the total 2-year price of service, Cox was higher despite the first-year savings. And that higher price persists indefinitely after that. 

I suppose I could do things like subscribe and a year in threaten to cancel unless they give me the promo rate longer, but that's not my style. So Hulu Live TV it is...
