If I do not want to use an antenna,What is the cheapest service I can use with my Roku to get locals and be able record and play back later.Like a DVR?
@rvtips I already listed all your options. So did DB. Best place to start is SupposeTV.com. Put in your zip code and the networks you want. It show you what’s available. But I already did that. YouTube TV is $65. It also has unlimited DVR. It’s the best live tv streaming service out there. And I’ve used them all
No service carries all local channels. The major channels, ABC, CBS, Fox, NBC, are carried by the ones listed earlier:
You should go to each and check availability. If they all have your local Big Four, Vidgo's YouTube TV's and Fubo TV's $65/month price is cheapest.

@DBDukes According to Vidgo they only offer ABC & Fox
That is correct. Fubo TV and YouTube TV's $65/month would be the cheapest to offer the Big Four.

Thanks you all. It looks like I will try each one and then go from there.
Thanks again.
@DBDukes PlayStation Vue was actually the best service I used. FuboTV and DirecTV are great for RSN’s. I was using DirecTV Stream Choice package for about 1.5 years. Mainly for NESN. But I find myself not watching it much (local New England sports) so I’m saving $25 with YouTube TV
@rvtips Don’t try them. Research them. Trying them is going to be a hassle. Making accounts for each. Plus you will have your credit card entered in all of them. Like I said and DB said go to SupposeTV.com. From there you can compare all the services and select which one works best for you. Keep in mind that Hulu with Live TV doesn’t carry AMC. So you have to you something else. YouTube TV is the only service that includes unlimited DVR. No service will carry everything. Last time I checked FuboTV did not carry ABC in my area
OK I went with you tube TV. I recorded some programs.like Big Country BUT I can not fast forward pass the commercials. That is one of the reasons I did this.
I believe YouTube TV also has on-demand content available, including some recent shows. I do not know if that show is one that has recent episodes available on-demand. Depends on what channel carries it.
But, if it is, were you watching a recording? Or were you watching an on-demand episode?
