Pay services streaming is a lot more free market than Cable TV. You can stop and start at any time and if it gets too pricey, you can drop it. So you can binge watch a series like Game of Thrones and then stop it when you are done a month later. A month of Starz is around $10. Also, there is an expectation that streaming is supposed to be inexpensive.
Lastly, there are no regulatory and usage fees that are piled on high and wide on your typical on cable TV bill. Just the usual sales taxes. Our cable TV taxes and fees were around $50 per month.
Thanks, but I know all about the options, just nothing I want to watch, including old stuff.
