What options are available to watch the BTN when your provider doesn't carry it. Can I watch it live online and stream the picture from computer to the TV? 

 

Also heard about hulu. Which is the easiest and best options.

Some Streaming TV services have it, such as: YouTube TV, Hulu Live TV, DirecTV Now, PlayStation Vue, or FuboTV 

Also, you could switch to a Satellite TV provider, they carry Big Ten Network nationwide.

The only option to stream direct from the Big Ten Network is BTN2Go, however you need to have a TV plan that carries BTN to use it. If you know someone who has BTN on their subscription plan, perhaps they would allow you to use their password for streaming.

Thanks, good news to find out that I have a boxed smart TV. Just finished hooking it up.  It does have the hulu app. So, that's a good start.

Just remember that you don't get BTN with regular Hulu, you have to get their live TV option.

What does their live tv option give you in channels? I have Direct TV and is it better than Direct Tv? After everything said and done I’m spending $200 and month and that’s with a so called discount but $20 is a warranty for all the crap they put in and all 4 of my TV’s. If they can’t fix it they replace it under the warranty and man has it come in handy because they replaced my 65” Samsung 2 times already. The warranty is for the life on the tv when the one you buy when you buy the tv from Best Buy is only for 5 years if I remember right.

Hulu has around 60-70 channels I believe... I personally use Dish Network though. The reason I chose Dish over Directv is their DVR is much better and I only pay for the one DVR but I'm able to stream it via their "Dish Anywhere" app to my other TVs for free. No $5-$7 charge per TV.

Dish Anywhere basically just streams anything directly from my DVR, anywhere I want to watch it. If I'm at my friends house and he doesn't have BTN, I just stream it from my house to his TV. LIVE. If we want to watch something I recorded, I stream my recorded show. It's awesome and works perfectly.
