6 Best Services to Watch Disney Channel Without Cable on Roku
cord-cutting › watch disney channel without cable on roku • December 13, 2024 • The Staff
It’s the classic kids channel, filled with eccentric stories spanning summer camp hijinks, a psychic mom, cake baking competitions, and more.
You can watch Disney Channel on Roku without cable and with a free trial on Spectrum TV Choice (for Spectrum internet users), YouTube TV, Hulu with Live TV, and Fubo, or you can get a subscription to Sling Orange, Vidgo, AT&T TV, and Sling Orange + Blue.
If you already have Roku and are looking to cut the cord, there is no reason you should have to get a new device.
Here the best services that cord-cutters use to watch Disney Channel on Roku.
Fubo is a live TV streaming service that offers up to 300 channels across three plans: Pro ($75/month), Elite ($85/month), and Premier ($95/month). The channels cover entertainment, news, and sports, but the latter is its specialty, so you’ll find plenty of local channels that cover everything from national leagues to college matches. Crucially, however, Fubo is missing Turner channels like TNT and TBS and A&E channels like History and Lifetime. But if you’re fine with its lineup, then you’ll be happy to know Fubo is compatible with most media players, including all models of Roku. You can download Fubo and either log in with your Fubo credentials or create an account and opt for In-App Billing so you can pay for Fubo along with your other subscription through Roku.
Hulu with Live TV is a comprehensive live TV package that comes with more than 80 live channels, including major local networks like ABC and NBC and sports channels like ESPN and CBS Sports. Plans start at $83/month, but Hulu with Live TV has a range of add-ons you can purchase. You can download the Hulu app on Roku to start watching on your Roku device and log in with your Hulu credentials if you already have an account. If you don’t, you can sign up through Roku, where you will be billed, but note that add-ons can only be managed directly on Hulu.com. If you’re on a basic tier, you’ll also want to update your plan on Hulu rather than Roku to enjoy bundle inclusions like Disney+ and ESPN+, which should come at no additional cost with Hulu with Live TV.
As one of the more affordable and customizable live TV providers out there, it’s no surprise that Sling TV is a popular choice among cordcutters. Depending on what you prefer, you can choose between Sling Orange (family friendly content) or Blue (more news and sports), each for $40/month, or you can combine the two plans for $55/month and select add-ons ala carte. If you own a Roku device, it’s possible that Sling TV already comes pre-loaded on the homepage since many Roku users are also on Sling. But if it’s not, then you can simply download Sling on the Roku store and add it to your lineup of channels. You might be asked for your Roku PIN and Sling credentials in the process. Some Sling users have reported that Sling occasionally crashes on Roku, but an upgrade or refresh usually does the trick.
YouTube TV has more than a hundred channels including local, entertainment, and sports networks. If you’re a fan of the latter, then you might already know that YouTube TV is also the exclusive home of the NFL Sunday Ticket. That’s why at $73/month, it’s a favorite among cord-cutters, especially since you can play it on almost all streaming devices including all Roku models (best to keep them updated, though). YouTube TV’s clean interface coupled with Roku’s minimalistic design make quite the match, just remember to download “YouTube TV” from the channel store if it’s not pre-installed yet, not “YouTube” or “YouTube Premium” if you want to watch live TV.

Disney Channel on Vidgo on Roku
With Vidgo, your live TV channel access is vast. Whether you opt for a Spanish or English language plan, you get 95 live channels for just $70 a month. Prioritizing channel selection, Vidgo doesn’t offer on-demand content or DVR capabilities. But if you’re just looking to add a live option to your streaming portfolio, it’s all upside. In recent months, however, Vidgo has suffered many outages, some due to missed payments.
Price: $69.99/month
