A while back, my soccer-loving teen wanted to watch a championship match. Sadly, the game wasn’t on television. That’s when I discovered fuboTV. My son was able to watch the game live on one of his devices, and all was well with the world.

If you are a sports fan, like my teenage son, then you know how difficult it can be to watch some of the games. Sometimes, they are just not on television, and it can be challenging to find them online as well. And if you do find them online at some obscure website, the quality is often terrible.

In fact, it can be so poor that not watching the game is almost better than streaming it. Fortunately, the fuboTV service has solved that problem.

What is fuboTV Service?


As you may have guessed from the description above, fuboTV is a subscription service that primarily focuses on live sports for both American and international teams. The service also has movies and news for their users to watch when their favorite team is not playing.

The service launched in 2015 as a soccer streaming service, but changed direction and began to expand to add other sports and programs. In September 2017, the service passed the 100,000 subscribers milestone and said they are continuing to see double-digit growth monthly.

Users can access the service on their desktop or mobile web. It also works on Android, iOS devices, Apple TV, Amazon Fire TV, Chromecast, Kindle Fire, T-Mobile’s Binge On and Roku.

DVR Your Favorite Games on fuboTV


In addition to the wide variety of channels offered with fuboTV packages, subscribers can record their programs with fuboTv’s cloud DVR. According to fuboTV’s help center, customers can record live programs on most of the channels before or during the airing of the show. The best part is that it does not matter when you turn the show on, it will always record the entire program.

You can watch your recorded shows in different ways depending on what device you are using. For instance, Android TV and Amazon Fire TV users go to the screen “My Saved Videos” to find their shows. Whereas Android and iOS users will find them on the screen labeled “My fubo.” If you are using a computer browser, Apple TV or Roku, you’ll find the videos in “My Videos.”

Thirty hours of cloud DVR are available with every package free of charge. If you need more storage, you can purchase 500 hours for $9.99 per month. All of the programs that you record are available about an hour after they have ended. Then they will stay in your cloud until you delete them.

So, if you are sick of paying your cable provider hundreds of dollars, but you don’t want to miss out on your favorite sports, fuboTV is for you. You can watch nearly every sports match that you want. The service even offers NFL RedZone as part of its Sports Plus add-on. This ensures that you will never miss a football game.

If you are a soccer fan, you can view the premier league and international games. This includes the World Cup games through fuboTV. Hockey, baseball, basketball, etc. are also available.

Additionally, with the free thirty hours of DVR that is provided to every customer, you never have to worry about missing a program. All you have to do is hit record, and you will have your show uploaded to the DVR cloud.

If you want a service that offers sports and regular programming, download the fuboTV app or go to the site on your browser. Everyone is given a free seven-day trial to determine if they like the service. If you do not like it, just cancel before the seven days is up. You will not be charged for your subscription.

We doubt that you will decide to cancel it, however.
