Sling TV

Sling TV is an American streaming television service operated by Sling TV LLC, a wholly owned subsidiary of EchoStar. Unveiled on January 5, 2015, at the Consumer Electronics Show, the virtual multichannel video programming distributor aims to complement subscription video on demand services for cord cutters, offering a selection of major cable channels and OTT-originated services that can be streamed through smart TVs, digital media players and apps.

Sling TV is led by Erik Carlson, who also serves as the President and COO of Dish Network. The service's precursor, the international television service DishWorld, was also brought under the auspices of Sling TV LLC and was rebranded as Sling International. Following an invitation-only beta launch of the service that began in January of that year, Sling TV formally launched on February 9, 2015.

In November 2023, Sling TV had 2.12 million subscribers. In January 2025, Sling TV has 2.09 million subscribers. As of May 2025, Sling TV has a total of 1.89 million subscribers.
