4 Alternatives to Stream A&E, History, & Lifetime

Sling TV offers A&E, History, Lifetime, and Vice TV in both their Sling Orange and Sling Blue plans ($35). For a limited time, you can get your first month for just $10, plus a $10 Amazon Gift Card.

One unique feature with Sling is that you can add additional channels through Extra packs like Kids, Comedy, News, and Lifestyle. If you want FYI and Lifetime Movie Network, they are part of their $6 “Lifestyle” Extra Pack.

In addition to channels from A+E, if you choose Sling Orange + Blue ($50), you’ll get AMC, Disney (ESPN, Disney), Discovery (Discovery, Food Network, HGTV), FX, NBCU (Bravo), and Turner (TNT, TBS, CNN).

In comparison to fuboTV, you’ll gain No Channels. While you’ll lose channels like Disney Junior, FXX, Hallmark Channel, MTV, Nickelodeon, Paramount Network, and VH1 in their base plan, you can add some as part of their $6 Extra packs.

In order to get NFL Network, NFL RedZone, MLB Network, NBA TV, and NHL Network (which fuboTV offers), you’ll need to add the Sports Extra pack ($10).

Sling only carries NBC & FOX, it’s only in select markets, but you can either supplement with an antenna or access Locast, which is now integrated into the Sling guide.
