HoosierJax Posted September 26, 2019 Report Share Posted September 26, 2019 I came home from work today to find the Big10 network which is owned by Fox sports removed from my program line up on Dish Network...is this a Fox vs Dish Network issue or have others lost it too?

BDB Posted September 26, 2019 Report Share Posted September 26, 2019 I am actually splitting this with one of my buddies. The basic plan is $45/ month + $10 for unlimited TVs. Each family pays $27.50 https://clark.com/technology/tvsatellite-cable/hulu-live-tv-review/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
milehiiu Posted September 26, 2019 Report Share Posted September 26, 2019 Yes. Get HULU. They have the alternate channel. If not for that, I would not have been able to watch IUFB most times this year. I am out of the "Footprint". However thanks to HULU, I have and will be able to see every IUFB game this season. GO HOOSIERS ! A while back, Comcast ( my cable provider) pulled the plug on the Big Ten channel. I was paying $10.00 a month extra to get it. But Comcast pulled the plug. That's when I discovered HULU. And have never regretted it, even though Comcast put the BIG TEN Channel back on for the extra money. Even then, as I say, since they don't have the alternative channel, I would have missed out on many of the IUFB games this year. One suggestion. Should you go HULU. For an extra $10.00/month....you can get the unlimited devices option. And watch movies, etc any where on any device. Even while waiting to see your doctor, or at your favorite restaurant, etc, etc. __________________________ Oh, one more suggestion. For best service. Make sure you have a good internet connection/provider. The stronger, and faster.The better. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maud'Dib Posted September 26, 2019 Report Share Posted September 26, 2019 I agree with Hulu. It takes a little time and trial/error with using their interface, but overall not too bad. You will need a smart TV, Roku, or Firestick to download the app. For me the best part is you only pay month to month and can cancel anytime. So i fire it up in November and cancel in April, basketball is all I need it for (and they have all 4 tournament channels). Use an antennae the other months, you will be surprised the number of channels you get with cheap digital antennae. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So that is saying something. If I can do it. Anyone can. Unlike you. Too many Hulu Live TV offerings for me to cancel. However it is a neat option not to have a contract, unlike most cable companies.

rico Posted September 27, 2019 Report Share Posted September 27, 2019 I had to go to Columbia City this morning and take care of some business with my insurance agent. Big IU fan he is. He was so upset about losing the BTN on Dish. Talked to him for awhile about streaming. I also told him about this thread and site. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I hope HSN doesn't get caught up in this FBI probe. I got the 5* insurance agent to commit to HSN, but I did pay for insurance coverage. Is this a NCAA violation?
