YouTube TV also just added several Hallmark channels, just in time for its volley of holiday movies. PlayersTV and Fox Nation also joined the platform in recent days.

The service is also working on “flexible” channel options, which may hint at smaller bundles in the style of Sling TV.

With its unlimited cloud DVR that allows you to save recordings for nine months, it’s a strong option for cord-cutters.
