For details on how to cut the cord, or to see if Sling is right for you, the site has put together a “ Slingucation” page to help answer questions, find out what channels are available in your area, and to dispel common myths and misconceptions about live streaming. When you factor in things like savings and flexibility, we think cutting the cord just makes sense these days. Sling also lets you put together a lineup you’ll actually want to watch, all while saving you almost a thousand dollars a year versus cable. If you want to watch live sports, award shows, or just follow the news to keep abreast of what’s going on in the world, Sling offers access to the most popular - and most important - channels to tune into right now.Ī starter subscription to “ Sling Blue” gets you more than 50 channels right off the bat, including CNN and MSNBC (for news junkies), the NFL Network and Fox Sports (for live sports and to re-live greatest sporting events), and favorite channels like Bravo, E!, HGTV, TNT and USA. Unlike Netflix or Amazon Prime, Sling gets you on-demand access to thousands of movies and TV shows plus live TV. We’re consuming content in different ways these days, including on our computers, tablets and phones, and only a live TV streaming service like Sling lets you do that. Cable TV offers a decent amount of channels, but it’s all tied to your TV - and a bulky cable box.

The first step to understanding Sling TV is knowing when it’s time to cut the cord – literally.

It seems the options are endless these days when it comes to OTT content, but what if there were a way to customize your content so you’re guaranteed to find something to keep you entertained? Enter Sling TV. There could be hundreds of channels on TV and yet we can never find anything we want to watch.
