Tubi review

Tubi is the strongest free option for cord cutters because it combines live channels with a very large on-demand catalog. Fox Corporation, which owns it, describes Tubi as the most watched free TV and movie streaming service in the US, with a library of over 250,000 movies and TV episodes, a growing set of exclusive originals and over 250 live channels. There is no subscription and no paid tier, so the cost of entry is zero and the trade-off is ads. Tubi will not replace a full live TV service: it does not offer the local network stations, live sports networks or cloud DVR that paid services provide. Where it helps is in cutting the paid bill. A household that keeps one paid live service for news and games, or uses an antenna for locals, can lean on Tubi for movies, older series and themed live channels instead of paying for a bigger plan.
