Stream March Madness
Max with Ads
Games on TBS, TNT and TruTV for $10 per month
Watching March Madness hasn’t always been easy. With games spread out across four networks — CBS, TNT, TBS and TruTV — you often would have had to pay for a cable, satellite or streaming TV package if you wanted to catch all the action. Not so this year.Â

For the Max with Ads option, that would bring the price down to $70 for the first year, which works out to $5.83 per month.Â
Max costs $10 per month and will show March Madness games on TBS, TNT or TruTV. If you’re determined to sign up for only one streaming service to watch the tournament, Max is the clear choice. Not only will…
