The sports situation with Youtube TV and online generally seems to be getting worse instead of better, and I'm not sure it's worth the monthly cost any longer. The only reason I have YTTV is for live sports. There's nothing else on live TV I care about.

It's EASIER for me to just stream games illegally than to subscribe 4 different services (Youtube TV, NBA League Pass, MLB TV, Sunday Ticket). Even with all those subscriptions, blackouts still kill a large chunk of games in my local market. It's just absurd. What am I paying for?

Cost?

• Youtube TV - $65 a month

• NBA League pass - $15/month (with blackouts)

• MLB TV - $150/season (without local market, so useless for me)

• Sunday ticket - $300/season

• Total cost: Around $1,400 annually for sports?! Who is willing to pay this much?

At this level of expense, it just makes more sense for me to go back to cable or illegal streams. Sad thing is if there was a reasonable way to pay for all this I would in a heartbeat.

I know a lot if not all of this is not Youtube's doing, but how long is access to live sports going to be fragmented and limited like this? You used to just buy cable and get everything you wanted.

If anyone has a suggestion please let me know. I just want to come home from work and throw on a game without worrying about which platform its on, what has a blackout, etc.
