If you have internet service wouldn’t Netflix make more sense at 9.99 mo or whatever it is now? My son uses computer to put it on big tv screen. You can still get TV shows and other stuff....I know people who like it better than cable or paying high prices to Dish.

Take those 60 days and investigate Roku and other Internet ‘tv.’ You’ll save tons of cable money and you will never go back. It’s just a matter of time until the cable companies disappear.

They are union, and I believe that is some of the problem. We are SO glad to have cut loose of our cable.

About the only way I see any TV is on my Logitech Revue. With that I get Google TV, NetFlix, Top Documentary Films.com, and other stuff. But no cable and the Revue only runs off a 12v adapter and that reeds a Toshiba LED TV which s pretty miserly power wise too. I do not even need to have the computer running, just my Switch/Router that takes nothing to run power wise.

And you know what? There is always too much to watch! No cable and too much to watch. With the Revue I also can see Crackle, You Tube, and tons of other free Internet TV. Most great TV series are on Net Flix (a year later) and they have their own shows also. The discontinued the Revue (stupid) but Roku and many DVD players have Netflix and other stuff built in. I see Wing Dead, Lilyhammer, Supernatural, Lie to Me, Breaking Bad, etc and like I said most other TV serials, but often a year later than current. Also Fox news and Fox news business and most of that is relatively current. Oh and I think you can watch CNBC and MSNBC free if you are drawn to those soaps.

Again, I see tons of shows and films and still have my DVD player, and view the free DVD's from places like the Howard Hughes Medical Institute. Just go online and get some terrific stuff from there for free. So if you want to cut the Cable and Satellite cord it is very doable. And like I said there really is more to see than your viewing hours probably allow.

Sorry, it does not get Lifetime so that may put a crimp in your entertainment,~~~~~ or not.

Raises Hand...

In fact I just finished watching two excellent Art documentaries on Netflix "The Art of The Steal" and "The Rape of Europa"...

We also use Free Hulu and Free Network sites and if there is anything we must watch that isn't available on the net like The Walking Dead we buy instant digital from Amazon.

Plus there are literally thousands of sites that stream most of what is on TV for free.
