To watch live and on-demand video, you can either visit or download Spectrum’s apps, which are available on iOS, Android, Roku, and Xbox One. If you want a bigger package, you’ll have to upgrade to a full bundle. In any case, there’s no way to get more than 10 cable channels through Spectrum TV Choice. The Spectrum rep said customers can call to select different channels as many times as they want within the first 30 days, but didn’t have a clear answer on whether customers can keep selecting different channels after that.
In our streaming bundle guide, I currently track more than 200 channels Spectrum TV Choice offers less than a third of them. Regional sports options such as Fox Sports and Big Ten Network are missing, as are league-specific channels like MLB Network and NBA TV. It’s a surprisingly solid list, but it doesn’t cover everything, especially for sports fans. You can view the full list at Spectrum’s website, or view the chart below, which is based on Cincinnati markets: An option to add HBO, Showtime, The Movie Channel, Starz, and Starz Encore for $7.50 per month each, or all of them in a bundle for $15 per month.įor the 10 cable channels, the lineup includes major national sports channels such as ESPN and FS1, all three major cable news networks, and popular entertainment channels such as AMC and HGTV.Music Choice channels are supposedly included, though I don’t see them in any of my apps.(These vary by area and might not include everything you’d get from an antenna.)

Setting up cable TV service is pretty easy these days. Choosing Apple TV goes for $5.00/mo and with an extra $4.99/mo for DVR access. So, everything in one place with a sleek, modern look. With the Apple TV box, you can add ALL your streaming accounts (Netflix, max, etc) and combine that with your TV Essentials programming. If you want more options, during sign-up, there's a way to add an Apple TV 4k device. Since this bundle requires internet and you can stream TV via the Spectrum TV app, there's no HD Box requirement (so, no extra receiver fee).
