Congrats, you will be happy you made the switch. It may take a minute to get used to the concept of not "channel surfing", but once you get used to how the app works you will love it. Just the ease of being able to watch on your phone, computer, tablet, or TV no matter where you are at is such a major "pro". Other than Bally Sports, all the major sports channels are available. Reliability has been great.

The current promotion is a reduced price of $57.99 per month (normally $72.99 per month) for each of the first three months.

Channel to channel navigation is a bit clumsy, but I'm willing to put up with that to save so much money versus cable!

Navigation is perhaps easier if you use the smart phone app as a remote, but I like to use the old fashion remote control that came with my TV.

What's also nice is you can go into settings (may need a smartphone or PC to do this) to delete channels from your channel listing grid that are of zero interest.

One annoying quirk on my Samsung Q80T television set is if I turn off the TV and then turn it back on a several hours later, the YTTV channel guide does not seem to auto-refresh, and the program that plays is the exact same program I was watching earlier. I need to usually toggle through a screen or two in order for the channel guide to update.

YTTV lacks the various RSNs, lacks MLB Network and lacks NHL Network. It *does* carry NFL Network (I am unsure about RedZone), NBA TV, FS1, FS2, TNT, TBS, CBS Sports Network, ESPN, ESPN2, the improperly named ESPN News, and ESPNU. It also carries BigTen Network, the SEC Network, and probably some others I'm forgetting.

That is very helpful information about YTTV. I'm paying $106 for Fubo per month. It has Bally Sports Detroit in my zip code but doesn't have any of the Turner/Warner channels like TNT, TBS, Discovery, etc. I have the same issue with the program guide not refreshing if I am watching something and turn off the TV or have the "sleep timer" set. When I turn it back on, it remembers where I left off on the show I was watching, but the program guide doesn't refresh unless I get out and relaunch the app. One of the things I like about Fubo is the flexibility to select a "home zip code." My understanding about YTTV is your home is based on your billing zip code. That is a problem for people who live in Monroe county Michigan (for example) but would rather watch local Toledo stations rather than Detroit, even though we're in the Detroit DMA. With Fubo, by selecting a Toledo/northwest Ohio zip code, it is possible to record and maybe watch Toledo stations. Speaking of recordings, Fubo recently offered unlimited hours of recording, however, recordings only last 9 months.
