I’m still dependent on cable for high speed internet service, otherwise I would cut it for good. Still using DTV though, since Household 6 can’t do without certain programs and is generally too tech challenged to figure out interweb tv programming. I would dearly love to cut the DTV cord and go strictly streaming.
See Post #4, above. We bought an Amazon Fire TV last month, and you could see immediately that cable TV was done for. Aside from news, we hardly watch a cable TV program anymore now that we have Fire TV. Cable TV series, HBO, Showtime, and the like, and Discovery documentaries, among many others, are free with Amazon Prime as are thousands of recent movies, and the picture quality is better than Cable HD. In the cases where I need to pay for something, the price is usually less than On Demand, and far less than the monthly cable bill for 95% of the content delivered that I have no interest in. What's even better, Amazon offers movies that are "out of print" or not available any longer. John Huston's The Roots of Heaven is one I enjoyed last week. Pay for what you want to watch, and only that, is what streaming promises.
