Cutting the cord on cable - need recommendation

Yes, I did notice the CBS New York channel is live for the 5pm-7pm news hours. I did not know that about the Bloomberg Channel and will check that out on the weekdays.

I'll probably re-subscribe to Sling for a little bit toward the end of the year and then cancel in January when Christmas is over.

What's pretty cool is that YouTube TV gives me SNY, so I can catch the Mets games. But not sure if that's a good thing since the team hasn't been playing all that well lately.

And I have now just discovered Smithsonian Channel has a channel on Pluto TV under the Explore category called Smithsonian Channel Selects.

My channel needs are now complete and I cannot imagine ever needing to pay for live streaming television on a regular basis unless this channel goes away.

Philo would be awesome if it weren't for the lack or sports and news. But it's got a pretty magnificent selection of entertainment channels, and only $25/mo.

But I need my news and sports, which I bet would drive the cost up dramatically. So I guess I can't have my cake and eat it too.
