What is TVision?
In basic terms, TVision is a streaming TV service similar to YouTube TV and Sling TV. Rather than having your live TV channels come from a cable or satellite dish box connected to your TV, TVision streams over the internet.
There are several different channel packages and DVR options to choose from. The primary service is called “TVision Live” and has three different packages. The “Live” service is geared toward news and sports. The three packages break down as follows:
TVision Live TV: 30+ channels, 3 simultaneous streams, 100 hours of cloud DVR, programs on-demand. TVision Live TV+: 40+ channels, 3 simultaneous streams, 100 hours of cloud DVR, programs on-demand. TVision Live Zone: 50+ channels, 3 simultaneous streams, 100 hours of cloud DVR, programs on-demand.
The next tier is called “TVision VIBE.” This one is focused on comedy, lifestyle, and drama channels. It has 30+ channels, but it doesn’t include DVR by default. You’ll have to add that on for an extra fee.
The last tier is called “TVision CHANNELS” and it’s an add-on to the other tiers. You can choose your own premium channels (such as Starz, Epix, and Showtime) and add them to the same bill.
