 Am> I currently use Youtube TV as my primary service, but they are raising
 Am> prices.

 Am> So wondering what others are using. I selected them years ago for the live
 Am> tv, and local channels (abc,nbc,cbs).

I'm in an area where I can get those channels over the air with a TV antenna.  And I use a HDHomerun network-attached TV tuner, which can stream TV channels to my various devices with their app; I also have a Plex media server on a dedicated PC which is configured to use that TV tuner - Plex can stream the live TV channels as well. I have an internal PCI Express TV tuner in my Plex PC (which I bought before I found out about the HDHomerun, which is a stand-alone device).  Both the HDHomerun and Plex can also act as a DVR.

Aside from the streaming options available with the setup, I think another nice thing is that the antenna and everything can be set up in a central place, so I don't need to attach antennas to my TVs.  I currently live in an apartment, but if I had a house, I'd consider mounting a TV antenna on the outside near the roof, like people did in the old days.
