We have several tvs (LG and Samsung) that came with a program that streams dozens of channels with our internet. We have Prime and Netflix but don’t pay the $250+/mo my dad and others pay for cable channels. We have everything we need for about $65 a month plus the charges for our subscriptions.

Problem is, streaming services are getting about as expensive as Comcast and directv.

Youtube tv is now $83 a month and Fubo tv is at least thzt much.

Slingtv is probably still the cheapest but doesn’t carry local network channels so a OTA antenna is necessary. Although I keep hearing rumors about free OTA channels becoming a thing of the past.

Our two newer Samsungs come with Samsung Plus free, which we thought was cool at first. But we never watch, although it has a very good channel lineup. It’s the “old fashioned” format in that nothing can be recorded. It’s live TV.

Maybe there’s and old fashioned way to record similar to when that could be done on VHS, etc.
