YouTubeTV 4K plus

Anyone tried it yet? Any reviews? Says that select live broadcasts will be available in 4K. I’m wondering how many SEC football / basketball games will be included (only the primetime games, all on ESPN / ESPN2, all of them?).

I did the free preview. Watched the Olympics and a couple of mlb games. The quality is amazing, but make sure your streaming device is supported or else you’ll just get 1440p, not 2160p which is UHD. My tv app supported it, but my Apple TV 4K did not.

No NFL Network or Redzone.

Get this….you have to have the latest box that supports LIVE 4K broadcasts. You can’t make this stuff up.

Thanks for the heads up. No concern with supported devices or internet speed….mainly curious about what percentage of the content on an available network is actually broadcast in 4K. Example….is every single MLB game on ESPN in 4K?

From my understanding it’s your national broadcast channels – NBC, ABC, FOX, CBS. ESPN, with the exception of ABC, still broadcasts at 720p, so I wouldn’t put much hope in it broadcasting games in 4K. I could be wrong though. It wasn’t worth the extra $20/month for me right now due to limited content.
