I have the basic level; use a Roku and have an antenna for local channels.

Sling can be somewhat frustrating as it will need to be reset or reboot the Roku
at least once every time we watch it. Still beats cable by a mile.

The best part of using Sling is you can turn it on or off, no monthly contracts.

Also have Netflicks and Amazon Prime. This combo gives us all the TV we need
or want.

It is great to be cord cutter!
