However, all three are now facing price increases.

According to YouTube TV’s X account, the company explained the reason behind its new price: rising costs.

“A message for our members: we have always worked to offer the content you love, with features to enjoy the best of live TV. To keep up with rising content costs, we’re updating our monthly price to $82.99/mo [sic],” the company tweeted one month before its new price will go into effect. “We don’t make these decisions lightly, and we realize this has an impact on our members. We are committed to bringing you features that are changing the way we watch live TV, like unlimited DVR storage and multiview, and supporting YouTube TV’s breadth of content and vast on-demand library of movies and shows.”

Hulu Plus Live TV currently offers a basic plan starting at around $83 per month, offering more than 90 channels for subscribers.

Sling TV offers a basic plan starting at around $40 per month. Both Sling Blue and Orange cost $40 per month, while Sling Orange + Blue costs $55 per month.
