MSG Network without cable TV

[gadiamon72]

This has probably been covered before. I am looking to cut the cord with optimum, but I don't want to lose MSG. The problem is Hulu, Youtube TV, Sling, etc...don't carry MSG. Any suggestions on how I can still watch Isles games once I leave Optimum would be greatly appreciated. Thank You!

what i do is, i use my moms optimum id and log into the msggo app on my ipad and airplay it to my appletv. that way i can watch on tv. aside from looking for streams online, that is your only option.

well unless you get a vpn setup to change your location and also get the nhl.tv to avoid local blackouts (or whatever gamecenter is called now).

Fubo and ATT Now are the only streaming services that carry MSG.

How has your experience been with Fubo. Any idea how they compare to YouTube and others? Thanks for the info.

I'm assuming you're in market and want to watch on your television?

Yes, that's correct.

Have no first hand experience with either service. Just the result of my research when I was considering cutting the cord with FIOS. Unfortunately, I found that if I wanted MSG, pretty much nothing really made sense, so I went with a "skinny" bundle.

We had Fubo 2 years ago when there was no available choice of cable providers due to our living situation, so it may be different now. The feed could be sketchy in quality, and at least one game it stopped working altogether. The only other experience we have had was with MSG. It beats not seeing the games at all, although I have no idea of what the cost is.

On the sunny side of the stream!

Sorry for bumping this, but like the OP, Im looking at cutting the cord, but MSG and Islanders games are one of the main things that still has me with Optimum/Altice.

Looking for a solution that is A) preferably legal, B) doesn't cost an arm and a leg, and C) lets me watch on the TV screen, vs watching on a phone or tablet.

Thanks in advance!

Looking at FUBU, they have all the MSGs, SNY, NBCSN, etc. but they cost $65 a month I think at the lowest plan. Dropping cable TV, losing the triple play discount, and replacing it with FUBU doesnt make for a big savings. Right now, I pay $76 a month for the TV piece after a $15 discount for having 3 services, so we're not huge spenders on the TV side of things, but other than Islanders games and a couple of channels, we mostly watch Netflix/Amazon/etc.

I got fubo as well because it has msg. I’m saving about 50 dollars a month without cable as I have Verizon internet which is 80 dollars a month. I’ll go with fubo for a bit and see but I might drop that as well and just watch Netflix and Amazon which I get for free through promotions. Not worth paying these crazy prices anymore and after Coronavirus I have learned to cope without sports.

Thanks! And granted, probably wont need MSG until January, the way things look now.

I sent you a PM, but I forgot to ask if you're paying $80 for internet is that for gigabit? If it is, that's overkill for the majority of the population and you could probably drop it to a cheaper speed to save a little more cash.

Its IslesFan22 paying $80 for internet with Verizon.

Although Im paying similar with Optimum for their Optimum 100 service. Monopolistic rip off. Verizon isnt coming into my area until they roll out 5G.

I don't particularly care for Brooks.

Talk about shady.
