Perry -- I've had Playstation Vue since March and it's a great alternative to cable! Here's some info as well as my experience with it. But, to answer your question if you have Playstation Vue, you can stream several different shows at once on differnet TV's (I think it's 4-5 streams simultaneously) as long as your internet speed can handle it. SlingTV is one stream only at a time but hearing they are beta testing multi streams but it will cost more.
As long as you have at least 25 meg internet, you should be able to stream multiple shows with no issues, however 50 meg is probably better if you have devices all over the house (IPads, etc.). As others have said, the pricing is great with no hidden fees ($30/month is really $30 a month, that's all in pricing). My $30 tier has ESPN, ESPN2 but not BTN, that is in the $35/month package so I'll be upgrading for football season. At $35 you also get SEC Network and ESPNU and ESPNews if that's of interest.
I have Vue streaming via the Fire TV stick on all TV's and while not perfect, it works for me. Very little buffering or stalling while streaming, however the menu does run a little slow and it takes some time to change channels (although the Fire TV Box and new Roku stick are faster I've heard). For over the air channels, simple antennas nested behind all TV's works pretty good.
I think the best feature is the cloud DVR, it is included with your subscription and you simply "tag" a show and it records all of those shows going forward, however they all erase after 28 days and no saving. No limit to these recordings so the family loves it. You can downgrade, cancel, etc easily without any issues.
One challenge I have seen is that the Fire TV stick and Vue is that sports are not quite as smooth as cable because of the streaming and the fact that the Fire TV stick is 30 frames per second vs. the 60 frames of cable, etc. It's not horrible but I can see a difference but saving $50-$75/month I can live it. Any other questions let me know!
