What is the best streaming service to replace cable?

To truly replace cable, you need a live TV streaming service rather than an on-demand streamer. YouTube TV and Hulu + Live TV are the two best cable replacements, offering 90–100+ channels, cloud DVR, and local network access in most markets. Both include ESPN and regional sports networks, which are the main reasons most people keep cable. Adding a digital antenna for broadcast networks and an on-demand service like Max or Netflix creates a complete cord-cutting setup.
