well there's another new study out
0:01
ranking the top live TV services for
0:04
customer satisfaction and YouTube TV my
0:07
number one pick it's not at the top of
0:09
the list this is from the American
0:11
customer satisfaction indexes
0:15
2022-2023 telecommunications study which
0:18
is based on responses from 22 000 people
0:21
so here are the rankings Hulu Plus live
0:23
TV is number one for customer
0:25
satisfaction with a score of 80 it
0:28
didn't make the list last year sling TV
0:30
up six percent YouTube TV down one
0:34
percent both of them with a 76 and
0:37
DirecTV stream the only other live TV
0:39
service that was statistically
0:41
significant to make this list it was
0:43
down five percent compared to last year
0:45
with a score 72. now this surprised me
0:47
and for a couple reasons first YouTube
0:50
TV is the only live TV streaming service
0:53
that's actually growing right now Hulu
0:55
live is among the services losing
0:58
subscribers according to recent
0:59
reporting now Hulu live starts at 70
1:02
bucks a month as of this recording and
1:04
it includes more than 85 live TV
1:06
channels from Top cable and broadcast TV
1:08
networks it stands out because it also
1:11
includes the on-demand Disney bundle no
1:14
extra charge and that brings me to the
1:16
second reason why this study surprised
1:18
me the acsi also ranked other streaming
1:21
apps for customer satisfaction including
1:23
the components of the Disney bundle so
1:25
that's Hulu Disney plus and ESPN plus of
1:28
those three only Hulu ranked near the
1:31
top of the list it came in third after
1:33
Prime video and peacock as you see here
1:35
Disney plus and ESPN Plus near the
1:38
bottom of the rankings so you might
1:40
think that would impact customer
1:42
satisfaction for Hulu Plus live TV which
1:45
again includes the Disney bundle but
1:47
apparently not last year I made a video
1:49
about JD Powers rankings of live TV
1:52
services that study ranked Hulu by
1:54
fourth not first and it gave the top
1:56
spot to fubotv which didn't even make
1:59
the acsi list now these reports yeah
2:02
they can be interesting to read and talk
2:04
about but they may not be the best way
2:06
to choose a live TV streaming service
2:09
the sample sizes for these studies are
2:12
relatively small you may find more
2:14
specific pros and cons that you're
2:16
looking for by watching review videos
2:18
like the ones on my channel and also
2:20
reading the comment section for a
2:22
variety of opinions if I had to redo the
2:25
acsi's rankings based on my personal
2:27
testing and feedback from people who
2:29
watch my videos YouTube TV would be the
2:32
number one premium live TV service it's
2:35
got a well-rounded channel lineup
2:36
unlimited Cloud DVR storage no contracts
2:39
no hidden fees and a solid user
2:42
experience second place would go to
2:43
either Hulu live or sling TV it really
2:46
depends on what you're looking for as I
2:48
mentioned earlier Hulu live includes the
2:50
Disney bundle but sling TV is a more
2:52
affordable option that doesn't include
2:54
all your local stations so it's best if
2:56
you've got an antenna and in that case I
2:58
may recommend it over or YouTube TV just
3:01
for the savings alone DirecTV stream not
3:04
usually my first or second choice but it
3:06
may be right for you if YouTube TV or
3:09
the other options don't have all your
3:11
must-have channels leave a comment below
3:13
and let me know how you would rank the
3:15
four services from the acsi report and
3:18
check out this video to learn the pros
3:19
and cons of every major live TV
3:21
streaming service including some more
3:23
affordable options I'm Michael and I
