Fubo vs Hulu + Live TV

When it comes to cord cutting, Fubo and Hulu + Live TV are two of the best streaming services around. Both are substantially cheaper than cable and offer many of the same great live channels for live sports and popular entertainment. When it comes to picking between the two, it comes down to inches in terms of price, channels available, and features.

Fubo is a more premium product and it has the price tag to match. Fubo plans are loaded with live channels (at least 185 live channels) and quality features. If you were to compare the channels available on Fubo vs. Hulu + Live TV, Fubo has an edge in local sports coverage with their regional sports networks. Plus, Fubo has an extensive video-on-demand library. While most streaming services have VOD content, Fubo has more than 40K TV shows and movies available via VOD each month as well as 55K live sporting events on the platform annually.

Hulu + Live TV is a unique streaming service option for cord cutters. Firstly, they only have one plan option for cord cutters looking for live TV. So, that means no customization options outside of a few add-ons and, on top of that, Hulu + Live TV doesn’t offer a free trial, forcing new users to pay immediately. Hulu + Live TV is not much cheaper than Fubo and it has noticeably fewer channels. There’s a big hole in their local sports coverage of the NBA, MLB, and NHL. As for streaming live TV, they have one of the smaller caps on simultaneous streams, only allowing two active streams at the same time. Hulu + Live TV also has an expiration on recorded content, so users can never truly build their own on-demand library.
