So I just did a deep dive on FuboTV and YTTV and there are channels missing from each that would make it a difficult sell to switch.

Neither of them have History channel (losing Alone and Oak Island is a no go). Fubo doesn't have TBS/TNT/Tru or CNN channels. YTTV doesn't have Tennis channel (which I'm watching right now and watch every day I work from home since they show live matches all day long). And there are probably more I'm not even thinking about right now.

Fubo appears to be the best option (assuming UI and actual execution of deliverables, of course), but having to find solutions for X number of holes in the programming is where I think it all breaks down. I think I could adapt better than my wife, which means I'm screwed!

The real question is whether any currently airing content on particular channels is available immediately for streaming on other add-on apps (like, for History channel, can I buy Peacock+ or Discovery+ and get new episodes of Oak Island as they air available to stream, or is it one of those "wait until the season is over and maybe it'll be available for a limited time" things?).

How does everyone who streams deal with particular shows you want to watch on channels you don't get?
