[DIRECTV STREAM: THE BIG EVENT LEADER]
Price: Starts at $34.99 (MyEntertainment) or $69.99 (MySports).

Local Sports: The exclusive home for Fox Regional Sports Networks (RSNs).

Price: Starts at $73.99 (Pro Plan).
Key Advantage: Unmatched international soccer coverage with beIN Sports and Fox Deportes.
The NBC Dispute: As of March 2026, Fubo is still without NBC and Telemundo. This means no local NBC primetime shows or Spanish-language World Cup coverage.
2026 World Cup: While it lacks Telemundo, Fubo will carry English-language World Cup coverage via Fox and FS1.

Frequently Asked Questions:

Does Fubo have NBC or Telemundo in 2026?
No. As of March 2026, the carriage dispute between Fubo and NBCUniversal remains unresolved. Fubo users currently lack access to local NBC, Telemundo, USA Network, and Bravo.

What is the DirecTV Stream "MyEntertainment" Pack?
Launched in early 2026, this $34.99/mo entry-level pack is a "skinny bundle" designed for entertainment fans. It includes Disney Plus, Hulu, and HBO Max (with ads), providing a massive movie library without the high cost of a full sports lineup.

Where can I watch the 2026 FIFA World Cup?
Both services carry Fox and FS1 for English-language coverage. However, if you want Spanish-language coverage, you will need DirecTV Stream for Telemundo, as it is currently missing from Fubo.

Which service is better for NBA and March Madness?
DirecTV Stream is the clear winner here. Because Fubo lacks TNT and TBS (Warner Bros. Discovery channels), you cannot watch the majority of the NBA Playoffs or the NCAA March Madness tournament on Fubo.
