I am seriously considering cancelling my cable tv subscriptions. I have a package deal that includes tv and internet, but no one is watching tv in my household. We already have a Netflix and Youtube tv subscription. Do you think this is a good idea? How many of you still have cable tv, what are the benefits to keeping it? I feel like Netflix has all the shows my kids and my wife watch, and Youtube tv has all the sports that I need. What's the benefit of cable tv that I'm missing, let me know.
Nothing. YouTube TV will take care of everything. Save the money on cable and get FOIS instead.
Donât do fios. Itâs bad. In 3 months with fios I had more problems than in 10 years with cable. I had no idea that throttling is but apparently fios throttles video streaming services pretty often and at least once a month they shut them down all together for 30-40 minutes. Too much traffic they say.
Not sure what services ur using but none of that has happened to me.
Gave up cable TV a year back have Netflix and amazon prime
Haven't owned a tv for 10yrs. Basic internet + <streaming service> is usually enough, unless you like paying to watch ads at a rediculously loud level between shows, or buy ppv on top of $150-$200+ cable tv packages. Put that cash in a savings account for your kids instead.
Problem is some areas like mine only have Comcast. And those blood suckers don't offer an internet only connection here. I have to bundle and then pay the stupid 10$ broadcast fee every month for something I don't watch!
Do it! We did and never looked back. Get an HD antenna for the rare times you want local tv stations.
I cancelled my cable 5 years ago and switch to a mohu leaf antenna. nobody is watching regular tv anyway since everything is online.
Enter your address at https://antennaweb.org/ to find out which uhf antenna you need. You get all local channels for free in higher quality HD than Comcast. Totally legal. You can also get a usb dongle to save streams to your pc if you want to record and skip commercials (personally I use Kodi on win 10).
5 years since we had cable. Buy a mohu HD TV antenna if you need to watch local games.
This thing is dope
