Let’s be honest: when you think live TV streaming services, you typically think of a service that’s expensive enough to rival cable, right?
While, yes, there are services that are expensive out there, there are also some affordable options to give you access to all of the live channels you love.
Let us introduce you to Philo.
Philo is cheaper than all of its direct competitors and we particularly love this service for its array of lifestyle networks and extensive true crime catalog.
What is Philo?
Philo is the most cost-effective live TV streaming service, with over 70 channels for just $25/month.
If you’re looking for a service to replace cable and typically only watch lifestyle programming on networks like HGTV and TLC, or consider yourself a true crime junkie, this service is one you’d likely get a lot of value out of.
Philo Subscription Pricing:
Unlike a lot of other live TV streaming services, Philo doesn’t have multiple subscription plans. It offers just one, priced at $25/month. This includes over 70 channels and an unlimited DVR that stores recorded programs for up to one year.
The service also offers three premium add-on packages for additional monthly prices:
- Starz ($10/month)
- MGM+ ($6/month)
- Movies and More ($3/month): includes HDNet Movies, REELZ, Sony Movies, FMC, Movies!, and Fandor.
Does Philo Have A Free Trial?
Yes! New Philo subscribers can take advantage of a seven-day free trial before payment starts.
Philo Channels:
Philo’s base plan comes with over 70 live channels. The roster includes popular networks like Lifetime, Hallmark, MTV, ID, and the Discovery family of networks. It also includes Paramount Network, where new episodes of Yellowstone air.
Below, you can check out a full list of channels on Philo.
Does Philo Have Local Channels?
No, unfortunately, Philo does not carry any local channels like ABC, NBC, or CBS or news channels.
Can I Watch Sports on Philo?
No, Philo is not a service known for live sports coverage (especially with the lack of local channels). The only sports-centric channel on the streamer’s roster is beIN Sports Xtra.
