Re: cutting the cord Man, that is annoying when the wind and hail is pounding on the roof and you run to see the radar/satellite image. We are lucky to have an alternate station with radar running most of the day. But, sometimes it's faster to boot the computer and go to a weather website than to turn on the Weather Channel and hope they aren't running fluff programming.
Remember when SciFi used to be primarily Science Fiction? Now they have wrestling and B grade horror movies most of the time.
The ONLY way you can watch TV anymore is with a DVR/HTPC. You can set it to watch stuff while you sleep or doing other stuff and then skip through the crap and commercials later.
I just scaled back my cable to basic cable. I need to watch two or three shows a week and they aren't online yet. I'll miss Discovery, Comedy Central, SyFy (ugh) and some others occasionally, but it's not worth $40/month. Plus they're forcing the DTA/cable box issue on us now... |
