We no longer have cable. <br />The kids get a little annoyed at times, but honestly no one was ever watching it. Most of the stuff I like is on prime time with the exception of 3 or 4 shows and with Hulu/Netflix/Amazon, I can watch what I really like.

And it works really well. The Roku with Hulu Plus + Netflix hits all of my addictions except HGTV and CNN. Interestingly, when Neal randomly plugged our TV in a few weeks ago, we mysteriously have cable. I guess they didn't get "all" the channels canceled. So we have 2 or 3 random cable channels. Fortunately, one is HGTV. But I don't so much miss cable. I love, love, love our Roku.Allysonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05536029582533052135noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2220506856849781857.post-65755025962896829432013-02-23T14:12:03.994-06:002013-02-23T14:12:03.994-06:00You can get one of those magic jacks, and pay some...You can get one of those magic jacks, and pay something like 9.99 a month, Hulu and Netflix are 7.99 each a month. All you need is high speed internet. If you have HDTVs, you can plug the cable from the wall directly to the television, and have it scan for channels. It will pick up NBC, CBS, Fox, ABC and a few others all in High def.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14276339897868713062noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2220506856849781857.post-1409904963642392512013-02-23T13:58:16.253-06:002013-02-23T13:58:16.253-06:00I considered dropping cable last month when our bi...I considered dropping cable last month when our bill (bundled with phone and internet) went up to $190/month! I called and complained and they dropped it to $140. I TiVo everything and never, ever watch tv shows the day air, so Hulu would definitely work for me. I'm still considering it. I really want to get rid of our house phone because it's all telemarketers (it's actually cheaper to bundle with the phone then to just have cable and internet, isn't that stupid?). Hmmm, decisions, decisions.

We watch 99% of our TV shows through Netflix. There's just soooo much to watch on there I can't justify spending money on a cable package.
