Ideas for Directv users for game

[Dr.bannedman]

antenna = only 1080p
youtubeTV (and other streaming services) = 4k?

is this why many people don't want to go with the antenna?

Most people have no idea how easy and convenient it is to do the OTA thing. It has saved me many thousands of $ over the years.

I just bought 3 Firesticks for our TV's, signed up with Youtube TV, and called Mediacom to cancel everything but internet. Will save $100 per month and the picture quality is outstanding.

And just like that, Channel 5 in DSM is back on DirecTV!

It's OTA for free. I cut the cord and put up a Mohu flat antenna that I tacked to the wall 4 years ago.

I know OP said they don't want an antenna, but I have this on the wall behind my TV. Works great, nothing visible & 20+ free channels. Easy solution.

Also, very little content is filmed or broadcast in 4K yet. I highly doubt cable or satellite will have the game in 4K.

They came back on last weekend.......the day AFTER we needed them for the CCG, of course. Apparently it was because they wanted to get it done before losing another Sunday of NFL games (the owners of WOI were holding their other stations away from DirecTV also, some of them were CBS/FOX affiliates).

It was annoying, but I got by with a $19.99 antenna from Best Buy.
