fuboTV Channels: Starter & Elite Plans Compared in 2021

fuboTV has always placed an emphasis on sports. While that emphasis still exists today, the channel lineup has evolved over the years and is now more similar to other live TV streaming services. Making it an option worth considering regardless of the level of interest in sports. Previously, fuboTV only offered one main plan – the fubo Standard plan – priced at $54.99 per month. However, the service has since removed the Standard plan. Now, anyone signing up to fuboTV will primarily be expected to choose between the $64.99 per month Starter plan and the $79.99 per month Elite plan.

While these plans differ in the selection of channels, they also vary in other areas as well, including the number of cloud DVR recording hours, as well as the number of simultaneous streams. For reference, fuboTV does also offer a Latino Quarterly Spanish language TV package, priced at $33 per month with access to 32 channels.

Officially, fubo states that the Starter plan provides 107 channels, while the Elite plan increases the channel count to 153. While that sounds like a lot for the entry-level Starter plan, there are multiple beIN Sports and TUDN channels included. For those less interested in sports, the number of different channels will be a lot less than the official number.

Starter and Elite plans compared

The Elite plan includes every channel available with the Starter plan. The main difference between the two packages is the inclusion of the additional channels available with the fubo Extra add-on.

fuboTV channels summary

Overall, fuboTV offers two main plans that not only vary on the number of channels, but also the number of cloud DVR hours and the number of devices that can stream at the same time. The first is the Starter plan which costs $64.99 per month and provides access to 107 channels. The second option is the Elite plan which costs $79.99 per month and comes with access to 153 channels. However, these plans can be further adjusted through add-ons. In fact, the main channel difference between the two subscriptions is the Elite plan includes the fubo Extra add-on by default, while Started does not.

fuboTV leans heavily on sports and this makes it a particularly good live TV streaming service for those interested in sports channels and networks not typically available with other live TV streaming services. For those less keen on sports, or not in need of every sports channel imaginable, fuboTV might not be the right service. Going with another live TV service might not only save the consumer money each month, but it could also provide a more suitable channel lineup. In some cases, subscribers might end up with both better channels and at a lower price than what fuboTV offers.
