Sling Orange vs Sling Blue vs Fubo

It’s true that Fubo is more expensive than Sling Orange and Sling Blue combined, but is it worth it? If you need all 190 of its channels, maybe. But if you’re happy with the usual live channels plus Disney and ESPN, then Sling Orange should suffice. Meanwhile, if you’re looking for more entertainment options, then maybe Sling Blue, what with its extra offerings like FX, Nat Geo, and E!, is more your style. It even has local channels in select markets, though Fubo admittedly has wider coverage. But content aside, how do these three popular live TV streaming services match up when it comes to features like DVR storage, device compatibility, and free trial availability? We look into that and more below, so read on if you want to know which among the three is the best fit for you.
