Sling TV is a limited CableTV offering that is streamed channels (much like Netflix) via the internet. It is the same CATV channels you get from your Cable company, but it is an offereing by Dish Network (through the internet or satellite or coax). You plug a roku type box into your TV and hook it to the internet (wireless or wired). Therefore, you will still need your internet connection for your CATV or phone company. The packages are a limited group of the so called "most popular" channels, so you need to look at their offering on SlingTV.com to find out what is included in each package. It's less cost for less channels - otherwise cable tv streamed.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.Sling TV is similar to having Apple TV, it allows you access to streaming content. In my opinion, its way better than cable. Look at Sling TV as a portal or access to a variety of Programming where you can watch TV shows and movies. I use a Roku box and I fired my cable company a few months ago...I wish I had done it sooner! I only pay $50 per month for the internet connection and I watch many of the free channels from my Roku and I get FREE local HD channels with my HD antennae.
