I cut the cord when I moved to my rural home in 2006 and the only option would have been a satellite dish. Accumulated a big library of DVDs in the following years. Continued this way until 2020 with the pandemic and finally decided to get a streaming package so, I went with Sling.
They have gotten more robust since then, used to be that major channels would either be missing or frozen early in the morning, for example. There are a huge number of channels available now, didn't even notice until recently because I normally just have it set to show my favorites.
There are two (maybe more?) network channels from Philadelphia here on Sling. These would be my "local" broadcast channels (I'm about 50 miles from Phila). Only time I have ever watched them was during a local emergency, like tornado warning, hurricane, etc. Sports don't interest me.
So, I'm generally happy with Sling EXCEPT their app(s) which have been broken in one way or another for awhile on my AppleTVs, iPhone and iPad. Had so many problems with their website in the past, I stopped using it. None of these bugs are "deal breakers" but they are annoying.
