Sling TV: Affordable streaming service

Sling TV was one of the first over-the-top providers bringing live TV through streaming rather than cable or satellite. Owned by DISH Network, the first iteration of Sling TV was a service called DishWorld. After it became a success, the service was renamed to Sling TV.

Nowadays, Sling TV is one of the most popular streaming services. Reason being is that it offers several different bundles and options. As a result, the starting price is relatively low compared to the competition. For example, Sling Blue starts at $35 per month and includes soccer-related channels such as NBCSN, FS1 and USA. Plus, in select markets, it also includes the FOX and NBC networks.

At the same time, Sling Orange includes several ESPN channels, but not FS1 nor NBCSN nor USA. As a result, ESPN offers games from MLS, European Championship and more.

With Sling, the better option is to get Sling Blue+Orange for $50 per month. That combines the best of both options for soccer fans.

On top of that, Sling offers a long list of add-on packages and channels. Many of those include soccer-related channels. Having said that, the add-on packages will cost more money on top of your Sling TV subscription.
