[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Roku or a Roku enabled TV (or even a Smart TV) would be a great place to start. You'll get darn near everything, except the college football. You could also try an Apple TV.

I've tried Amazon Fire Stick, Apple TV, Roku, and Google Chromecast.  Amazon Fire Stick blocks stuff like Vudu (Walmart product) as they don't want it competing with Amazon Prime.  The Roku is my favorite, and we use it exclusively now.We have 1 per TV (it installs into the HDMI port and you connect power through USB on the TV, or if that's not enough power, you might need to plug it into an outlet)  link here: https://www.amazon.com/Roku-Streaming-Stick-HDR-Streaming-Long-range/dp/B075XLWML4/ref=sr_1_3?keywords=roku+4k+stick&qid=1566229285&s=gateway&sr=8-3

You can get Hulu Live app (I believe it's $40/month vs regular hulu which is maybe $10/month).  My husband seems to be happy with the sports coverage with Hulu Live.

It looks like you can get college football with Hulu Live: https://help.hulu.com/s/article/ncaa-football-availability?language=en_US[/quote]
