A new season of American Greed is going to premiere on CNBC on August 12, 2019, and it will be lucky number 13. We're going to help you figure out the best way to watch the show online.
When we use the Internet, we have the impression that the content we access can be taken anywhere and everywhere. Truth is, that's not exactly reality, because live TV platforms and streaming services come with limitations regarding the places you can go. Basically, due to licensing deals you can't watch your favorite shows when you go abroad. Your IP address will tell the site your location, and so when you're not in the United States, you're going to get blocked. Thankfully this issue is easy to circumvent by using a VPN service to change your IP address and trick the system into thinking you're back home. We're going to guide you through the whole process.
The CNBC website features a live stream that you can access, but you're going to have to log into an account. In order to do this, you're going to need credentials from a TV provider, which can very well be a cable company or a live TV service. Regardless of which one you choose, CNBC simply wants to know that you are paying for a subscription that includes their channel. We do suggest you go for a live TV platform, however, since because it will help you watch not only American Greed but every other CNBC show online as well.
Watching TV online is a thing that makes perfect sense since we live in the digital era. The platforms that have been launched in the past few years make watching TV online so much easier. Not only are these services cheaper than the plans traditional cable companies have to offer, but they are also free of contracts, which means you can unsubscribe whenever you feel like it without any problems whatsoever. The best part about using a live TV service perhaps is the fact that you can start watching your shows when they start airing without having to actually be at home which is something that you need to do when you use a traditional cable subscription. Let's see what options you have to watch American Greed online.
fuboTV - First on our list is fuboTV which is a platform that was built with sports fans in mind, offering them dozens of dedicated channels. For $54.99 per month, fuboTV offers access to dozens of channels, including CNBC. There are quite a few customization options available on fuboTV, including what feels like tons of channel packs and a few premium networks.
Sling TV - This next platform is quite versatile, as it comes with three main bundles and loads of packs offering channels grouped by theme. There are three bundles, namely Orange, Blue, and Orange+Blue. In order to find CNBC, you have to also get the News Pack which goes with the Blue or Orange+Blue bundles, and it'll cost you $5 extra per month. We do suggest you go for Orange+Blue, though, because it will influence the number of simultaneous streams you can watch on Sling TV, which is 4 with this particular bundle. If you need more content, there are obviously other packs you can add, as well as premium networks.
Hulu - Our list continues with Hulu, which is a platform you are probably already familiar with. The live TV service they have cost $44.99 per month and subscribers will get access to dozens of channels, as well as the full Hulu library of movies and TV shows. CNBC is part of the main bundle, so you don't have to add anything else unless you really want to. There are two-channel packs available so you can customize your plan, but also some premium networks.
YouTube TV - We also have YouTube TV on the list, which is a single bundle platform. For $49.99 per month, subscribers get access to dozens of channels, including CNBC, as well as one of the best features we've seen among live TV platforms, namely unlimited cloud DVR storage space. There are no extra packs to add on YouTube TV, but there are quite a few premium networks to browse through and pick from.
DirecTV Now - Our next platform features seven bundles and you can choose the one you like, either for the channel combo or the price. CNBC is part of most of these bundles, namely Plus and Max, which were added recently, as well as Entertainment, Choice, Xtra, and Ultimate, but not Optimo Mas. These last five bundles that we mentioned have been around for a long time but got a new name in spring as well as a new price. If you're looking to customize your plan a bit, you can add a couple of packs featuring Spanish channels, as well as three international packs, and several premium networks.
PlayStation Vue - The list also features PlayStation Vue which was one of our favorites during the review process. This platform features four bundles to choose from - Access, Core, Ultra, and Elite. CNBC is part of all 4 bundles, so you can get the one that has the right combination of channels or the right price for your monthly budget. If you need to customize the platform, there are two channel packs available as well as a few premium networks. You'll get a better price for these if you also have a PlayStation Plus subscription.
