Based on that article..youtube sunday ticket is no where near as good as the directv version..costs more..less streams = less service
Considering to be able to watch the games on multiple TVs, you would be spending a lot in per box fees all year, say 8 for example, that is, roughly, $56 a month or $672 a year.
So no, ST still costs more on DirecTV when you figure in those Box Fees and you must have a DirecTV subscription.
So a average DirecTV bill is $120 with 2 boxes a month, that is $1440 a year.
Then if you pay for ST, brings it to $1740 a year
Then 2 more boxes ( to match YTTV) $168 a year, $1908 total.
YTTV with ST, as of now-$1126 a year, $300 less then DirecTV on it’s own.

They could fix it by allowing subs to buy more streams but right now its too limited if you like watching multiple games
First, you can have 4 Games on at the same time on different Televisions, what is on CBS/Fox and two games of your choosing with ST, both at 1pm and 4pm.
Second, if you use multi-view , that only counts as one stream, if that option includes 4 games, then 8 games in multi-view ( depends on playing time of course), then the two on the networks.
I would never or have used multi-view, so I have no idea how it works, picture of each game would be too small for me.
Now, for the majority, I would believe two ( plus the networks) is enough, I need just one, to watch the Lions every week here in Florida, this summer having the screen redone on the back patio with the sun blocking material, so I will be able to watch them outside on the 165” screen.
Now I am out before I fall into……

but when I had RZ through Sling last season I had one TV just on that with my main TV for flipping between the 2 games in the timeslot on local TV. If I was a smart man, I would get NFL ST without Red Zone, then add Red Zone via the sports pack for the 4 months. Gives you a 3rd stream option for Red Zone. If you get NFL ST + RZ package its only 2 streams.
