Cut the cord in 2006.
I pay $50/month for high speed cable internet. When we lived in the 'burbs, I had a home made (from Popular Science) antenna that sat in the attic and got all the locals in hi def. Now we are a little further out in the sticks and so I have a roof top antenna. Sports that only air on cable we view online....
I also pay $10/month for Netflix but am considering cancelling it. It's becoming tough to justify, we hardly use it, and I can't see spending $10/month just to wait for Unbreakable Kimmy Schmidt and Stranger Things for me and The Ranch for my husband. I could always watch it on someone else's Netflix when those shows come out.
My parents pay about $250/month for Comcast internet, TV and phone, and they hate the phone service.... and only watch like 4 channels out of the entire cable package. They don't even have a DVR. They do have a lot of TV sets in their house and I guess you have to pay to have some kind of cable doohicky attached to each one... plus they have to "rent" the modem, among other stuff. It seems to really add up. My dad is thinking about cancelling it and trying out SlingTV and Hulu instead but he hasn't done it just yet.
