YouTube TV and FuboTV both hike their prices: What's a cord-cutter to do?
On Tuesday, YouTube TV announced a major price hike for its live TV streaming service—our current top pick in its class—from $50 per month to $65 per month. The new pricing takes effect immediately for new subscribers, and for existing ones after July 30.
Just a day later, rival service FuboTV announced its own cost increases. Fubo’s base price will rise to $60 on August 1, and its “Family” plan, which includes a third simultaneous stream and more DVR storage, will jump to $65, a $5-per-month increase in both cases. Even worse, FuboTV is also forcing current customers onto pricier Family plans without permission, so they’ll need to manually downgrade to get the lower base price.
