Fubo: The Bottom Line
Fubo
Beyond their five-day free trial, Fubo subscriptions are admittedly in the higher range of pricing brackets; there's no way around that. But, for sports fans out there, if your budget fits then you're putting your money towards an extensive lineup of live soccer, NFL, NBA, motorsport, MLB and much more. Plus there's up to $30 off your first month, which is a nice incentive, as well as a rolling style subscription so there's no long-term tie-in.
