PlayStation Vue

Five years later than most, but I'm officially ready to cut the cord and say goodbye to cable and monthly DVR rental charges. Sports are what kept me around for so long. I had my baseball covered with MLB.tv, but being an international soccer fan, I couldn't legally keep up with English soccer. Illegal streaming sites had poor image quality and weren't always in English.
I recently discovered PlayStation Vue (www.playstation.com/vue). It has all the sports channels that play soccer that I watch, plus over a hundred other channels. All for a much cheaper price than what my cable company charges me.
I have a smart TV, Apple TV, and a Roku, but Vue is not available on those platforms. It is, however, available on these devices which I do not own, PS3, PS4, and Amazon Fire. It also works with the Chromecast, which I do have, but for now, Vue only works with iOS. I'm an Android user.
Since I'm not a gamer, I'm just going to buy yet another streaming device to add to my collection and pick up the Amazon Fire. It's $99.99, but Amazon has a bundle deal for an additional $10 where you also get a 35-mile range indoor antenna. That should be nice so that I can watch live events like the World Series, Oscars, Presidential debates, etc...
Does anyone here have the Vue? They offer a 7-day free trial, but I can't try it since I have nothing to sample it on. It sounds great. I just hope I'm not wasting $110 on a streaming device that I'm only buying for this one thing.
