Sure I don't get discovery or ESPN, but I get enough to get me by. I used Blockbuster because it is just as easy to run around the block and trade in my DVD I got in the mail and pick out another one I want to watch. $18 a month as well with tax. I also used my SkyMiles that I never used to get a few magazine subscriptions for free. I've plenty to do and with programs like Boxee coming out that make my HTPC even easier to view things like Hulu, online radio, and many other multimedia sites, I'm happy as a clam!
I make real decent money, and I'm not fearing a layoff, but with me in school for my MBA and plenty of other things to do. I don't miss cable a bit, once you become OTA, it starts to become somewhat of a hobby for me. That is, finding other things to do besides sitting in front of the TV. |
