we use only Roku now

Plenty of free programming, pay stuff too but we dont

Link it to the hotspot ($10 per device/mnth added 10GB) on your cellphone and you dont even need an additional internet connection, unless you want that.

Gone, a $100+ mnth comcast bill

Roku is great, and I know someone who uses their cellphone for all Roku access on their TV.

One month she used over 100 GB.

“Gone, a $100+ mnth comcast bill”

I am hooking into Comcast/xfinity for internet only. Their rate is fair and they jacked up the speed last month to 75Mbs for free last month. The real world speed comes out to 85-90mbs. As tested on Ookla a few times a month

I cannot complain about “the libs of Comcast”

we looked into cutting hte chord, but for the channels we wanted, it was gonna cost right aroudn the same- and we’d lose htigns like being able to see who was calling, being able to record shows etc- this was quite awhiel ago-

We like channels like TMC, Discovery, A&E, TNT, ESPN, Newsmax, SCI FI, and some others which seemed to be we had to pay ‘ala-cart for? I know some services offer free old movies, but looking through them, they were all kinda not great old movies-

If you don’t mind, what do you pay per month for all the channels you like? and what do you mean about adding to hotspot to create 10 more GIG of phone service?

Our lousy cable bill (we get the bundle with internet and phone too) has almost doubled in just a few years=- We used to pay around $125 or os- now it’s over $200 a month- and that doesn’t even include any premium channels liek hbo or movie channels

We’ve never had cable. Watch Pluto, YouTube and Amazon Prime. One or two shows on network TV. That’s all.

I travel pretty heavily for work so I see hotel cable systems. The content is absolutely boring and insipid. That’s a lot coming from me for I normally have very low standards.

What’s interesting is the old tv shows. I’m binging Hill Street Blues. In the early 80’s, they were dealing with Defund the Police, Election Fraud and a whack job tranny, all in one episode.
