Sling TV has launched a new option that lets you watch live content without signing up for a streaming or cable subscription.
Sling TV also offers a weekend pass from Friday through Sunday for $9.99, along with a seven-day pass for $14.99.
Each add-on costs $1 more when added to the day pass, $2 for the weekend pass, or $3 for the week pass.
Live TV streaming services are already pretty pricey, and the ones focused on live sports are no different.
Both Comcast and DirecTV have $70 per month live sports streaming bundles, while ESPN and Fox’s upcoming sports streaming services will cost $29.99 and $19.99, respectively.
