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. Fans of March Madness should make it a top consideration, as Sling TV has almost every March Madness game. 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.
