I am seriously thinking of dropping cable. I can now access almost anything I want via an Apple Mac Mini computer hooked via HDMI to my TV. The graphics are tons better than cable, so I suspect I will drop cable soon. I was an early adopter of cell phones and have not had a land-line phone in seven years and I am perfectly satisfied.

I am seriously thinking of dropping cable.

Just over 2 years ago, I dropped the landline telephone. I don't make many calls. I was being charged $25 per month plus a minimum of $5 for any long distance (like to the adjoining town).

I went with a pre-paid cellular and couldn't be happier. Just yesterday I renewed it (I have several hundred minutes built up and they carry over) at a total cost of $77 for 15 months of service.

If cable keeps raising their prices, I may drop back to basic + Internet, as I have Netflix streaming.
