However, PlayStation Vue does offer local broadcast channels for CBS, Fox and NBC, whereas the Sling TV package includes no local stations. PlayStation Vue does not include ESPN, ABC or any Disney-owned channels, and it's also missing Time Warner channels such as CNN, TNT and TBS.

It's unclear if this would allow Xbox One users to watch ESPN programming through the console's ESPN app. Sling TV's deal for ESPN also includes access to WatchESPN, the streaming service that has traditionally been tied to a cable TV subscription. The Disney-owned network is the biggest name in sports programming, and live sports is one of the main reasons people decline to cut the cable cord. The company will add a 'Sports Extra' package in the future, and says it will expand all of its offerings over time.ĮSPN is key to Sling TV's appeal. At launch, Sling will offer two add-on packages priced at $5 a month each: 'Kids Extra' (Disney Junior, Disney XD, Boomerang, Baby TV and Duck TV) and 'News & Info Extra' (HLN, Cooking Channel, DIY and Bloomberg TV). The basic Sling TV package comes with 12 channels: ESPN, ESPN2, TNT, TBS, Food Network, HGTV, Travel Channel, Adult Swim, Cartoon Network, Disney Channel, ABC Family and CNN.

A feature called 3-Day Replay will let subscribers watch 'some shows' that aired within the past three days. The service will include DVR functionality for pausing, rewinding and fast-forwarding 'most live channels,' according to Dish.
