Philo does not carry any local broadcast networks. If you need local news or primetime programming from local stations, you must use YouTube TV."},{"question":"What's the difference in cloud DVR storage between Philo and YouTube TV?","answer":"Philo offers 30 hours of cloud DVR storage with unlimited number of recordings (you can save as many shows as you want, but only keep 30 hours at a time).
