I compared the channel lineups for YouTube TV’s new Sports Plan and DIRECTV’s MySports plan. Both are lower-cost alternatives to the full pay-TV bundle.
I track deals for these services and more on MichaelSavesDeals.com.
Key Findings
- Same regular price: $64.99/month
- Promos: YouTube TV (longer) vs DIRECTV (shorter, bigger discount)
- Both include: ABC, CBS, FOX, NBC
- Only YouTube TV has The CW
- Only DIRECTV has MLB Network, NHL Network and Tennis Channel
- Only YouTube TV includes NBC Sports Network and NBC RSNs (several cities), plus Spanish & niche sports channels
- DIRECTV includes ESPN Unlimited now; coming fall 2026 to YouTube TV
Note: DIRECTV removed several cable news networks from MySports in March 2026. Those are now available in a MySports and MyNews Duo bundle for $79.99/month.
