Probably not. I watch a lot of TV, including network & local TV, but I usually don't get to watch everything live so I DVR a lot of programs. Apparently, you can DVR cable programs on PS Vue, but it seems that for ABC, CBC, NBC, and Fox, I'd have to invest in an HD antenna (not too expensive) and a standalone DVR (potentially expensive and might require a subscription of its own). Overall, it seems that to have the same equivalent setup to what I have right now with DirecTV, I'll end up spending about the same amount of money.

Actually, ABC, NBC, and Fox are available nation wide, on Vue. They are only offering DVR/On Demand for those three channels at the moment. CBS is also available in select markets, with intent to reach more areas over the coming weeks. I definilty think it is worth giving the 7 day trial a spin, if it may save you money, and declutter your house. I mean it can't hurt anything.

the problem is even though Cable/DirecTv are rip offs (for what it costs them compared to what they charge), those service packages generally allow like hundred of channels/networks to be viewed at any time, whole series 'On Demand' and with recording abilities.

Playstation Vue might be a nice option but I doubt it can compete with the amount of material some of the more expensive traditional services allow. Its hard to abandon Cable or Satellite TV if you're the type of person who digs watching live sports and live TV shows with company or whatever :/
