Directory entry · scored 7.3 of 10
EarthWebTV scores 7.3 out of 10. It charges $15 a month and $110 for twelve — $10 above the floor five providers charge — with 1 to 5 connections. Its line-up is built around US and Canadian channels rather than a global catalogue, which is why its guide holds up better on North American listings.
Figures verified against each provider's own pricing page.
Every other provider in this directory sells breadth. EarthWebTV sells the opposite, and does it on purpose: a shorter line-up focused on North America is far easier to keep accurate than a global one nobody maintains — and accuracy is the thing you actually use every evening.

It is mid-table on both cost criteria: $9.17 a month on the annual plan against $8.33 at five rivals, and $8 per stream, which is better than the $10 group but behind the $6.67 pair. Nothing is published on refunds or founding date, and the trial is not stated as card-free.
Fewer channels you will never open, and a programme guide that is right more often. A global panel carries hundreds of international packs and maintains none of them well; a regional one has a shorter list to keep accurate.
If your viewing is US and Canadian live television, that trade is worth more than the numbers on a channel-count table would suggest — which is precisely why those numbers are not part of our scoring.
Price. $70 for six months is the most expensive six-month plan in this directory, and $110 for the year is $10 above the floor. On pure cost there is no argument for it over FreeGoTV or ViewTVY.
It also stops at five connections and publishes neither a founding date nor a refund policy.
US and Canadian viewers who mainly watch live television and want the guide to be right. If the on-demand catalogue is the reason you are subscribing, buy elsewhere.
Its $110 year sits $10 above the cheapest plan here and $10 below the dearest. At $8 per simultaneous stream it is behind the cheapest per-screen option ($6.67). It scores 73.4 of 100 on the published rubric and is listed 4 of 8 in our editorial order.
Every provider in this directory charges the same $15 for a single connection billed monthly, so none of the differences above appear until you look at a longer term or a second screen. Compare the full set in the annual price table or the connection grid.
Strength: The narrowest, most regionally focused line-up on this site, which is why its programme guide holds up better on North American channels than the global panels.
Weakness: The most expensive six-month plan here at $70, and the annual plan at $110 sits $10 above the floor.
$15 a month for one connection, $40 for three months, $70 for six and $110 for twelve — about $9.17 a month.
Yes — the line-up is built around US and Canadian channels specifically, which is its main differentiator here.
Up to five, priced $15, $25, $30, $35, $40 monthly.
The right pick for North American live television, the wrong one if price is the deciding factor — five providers charge $10 less for the year.
