In reply to the discussion: How do you consume "television"? [View all]LearnedHand
(4,442 posts)42. Cost was the main factor for my leaving cable/satellite too
But I will NEVER AGAIN pay for Fox News, religious programming, right-wing programming, or shopping TV. Same thing goes for satellite car radio. Theyve taken the cable TV approach and Ill never do that.

No cable, no satellite, no broadcast, two or three ad free streaming services, and DVDs.
