After testing the major live TV streaming services and comparing what you get for the price, we still think it's a better deal than paying for cable — but the gulf between the two options is narrowing. Now that many of the major providers go for more than $80 per month, it's not the amazing deal it once was.
Still, live TV streaming plans have no contract, offer relatively simpler pricing and don't need special equipment beyond a smart TV and an internet connection, which you likely already have. There are a handful of major players and, after testing them all, we found YouTube TV to be the most well-rounded. But other services have their advantages, too, depending on what you want to watch. So if you're ready to join the cord-cutters out there, here are the best live TV streaming services according to our hands-on testing.

Starting today and over the coming weeks, we're rolling it out to *all* @Android users with the Gemini app. Enjoy!
PS If you don't have the app yet,…
