I canceled that shit and got a homerun for football. If you’re going to just make me stream cable for the price of cable, you can go suck on a tailpipe if you think I’m paying over 850 a year. Fuck google. Fuck cable companies. And fuck these studios for thinking they can keep doing this to people.
What is homerun for football?
It’s this.

Basically a home based digital converter for live tv with DVR capabilities. I stream football games and can save them to a local hard drive as well as integrate into a Plex instance.
Thought you had to pay to do that in Plex.
If you do and people still want it, jellyfin integrates it for free. Either way, I'm very happy with my HD homerun.
I have a Plex lifetime pass for 85 bucks. I don’t believe you have pay though to get it in Plex. If jellyfin had integration with PlayStation and tvs I would use it.
Still doesn't give you the espn games, and an ESPN+ subscription won't even give you all the games they broadcast.
If that’s worth 75 bucks to you, then congrats; you have what you need.
