I had a (VERY) expensive cable connection about two years ago.

Very, very expensive.

Now I am completely disconnected. The only difference is I actually go to some movies now.

Otherwise, everything is available online.

You are finding the content elsewhere, what I learned is to not even desire the content anymore.

When I stay at a hotel I’ll pop on the TV for a bit before I can feel myself going insane. The content is just the worst now - it’s horror-movie grade ads (Seriously, you see these things ? And how much of it there is now?!) and reality TV which I have 2 friends who have been on and told me all of their secrets.

Reality TV is simply the worst. That was the final nail in the coffin of visual content. Of any kind.

Same here! Was paying nearly $260 per month for cable, Internet and Phone. And now:

High Speed Internet: $85.00 mo.
Ooma (Phone service): $4.85 mo.
Netflix: $9.99 mo.
Sling: $20.00 mo.

HD Antenna, Apple TV and home media fill all other gaps. Paid for all needed hardware with less than 2 months of what I was saving on cable.

No-brainer.
