Sling TV is one of the more affordable ways to stream live TV online because it allows you to customize what kind of content you’re paying for. Sling offers two base subscription packages, Orange and Blue. Sling Orange is focused on sports and family entertainment, while Sling Blue is primarily focused on news and general entertainment. You can also buy a subscription to both Orange and Blue. Other packages are available that add channels not available through either base plan. Unfortunately there is no Sling TV free trial happening right now.

How much does Sling TV cost?

Sling TV’s Orange package regularly costs $40 per month, and its Blue package offers several more channels and comes in at $45 per month. However, you can save on each with the deals mentioned above. You can also combine Sling Orange and Sling Blue for $60 per month, and savings on that is listed above as well.

Should you find that a specific channel or group of channels isn’t part of Sling Orange or Sling Blue, you can purchase add-ons and extra channel packages. For instance, News Extra is $6 per month and adds BBC Worldwide, NewsMax, News Nation and others. The $6 Lifestyle Extra adds channels like VH1 and Hallmark. There are also Sports, Entertainment, Kids, Hollywood and Heartland extras. Sports is $11 per month and the others are $6 per month.
