I have never subscribed to cable, ever. I haven’t watched television since the mid-late Nineties.
I do watch a lot of movies, and youtube, though.
When my wife and I go to a hotel, they have cable usually, and we watch it...for a while, until we look at each other and say “People PAY for this? What a bunch of crap.”
Wow, you described us exactly, right down to the cable TV in the hotel.
