We dumped TV in 1997. We got Amazon Prime a couple of years ago and, a little over a year ago, found out they included free video - and we had just purchased a 4k smart TV for a few hundred bucks. It had Amazon Prime, Netflix and a host of other streaming software built in. Since we use wi-fi all over the house, we simply went into Amazon Prime, plugged in our email and password, and have hundreds and thousands of old and new TV shows and movies at our fingertips that can be watched on demand - for free.
And the funny part is that we live out in the sticks with no cable or phone lines. Everything is via our AT&T cell phone data plan. We have an old phone taped up in a window as a “wi-fi hotspot” and our computers and TV are talking with the world through that little thing. High rez and high speed.
