As part of our going Galt two years ago, my wife and I terminated all cable/satellite service and now get all our TV over the air. We buy or rent the movies we want to see, and get everything else off the Internet (DSL). We're saving a ton of dough and only miss seeing a cable program every once an a long while.

Well worth the trade.

The only way I'll ever come back to any kind of subscription TV service is on an ala carte basis, but we're in no hurry.

I got a jailbroken apple tv2 and I can watch basically ANYTHING I want for free (After spending 170$ for atv2)I see they are getting more pricey as people catch on. Only the apple 2 has been jailbroken so far. I suggest FReepers check into it. I LOVE MINE!!(link for search on ebay.)

It takes a little getting used to but it is very liberating, isn’t it?!

I decided to cancel my cable too. About the only station I watched was Fox news, and when they went the way of screaming heads, I decided it was a waste of time.

Talk radio and the internet (FR) give me all the news I need, and there are always clips of the really good stuff. Someone puts them up on YouTube.

And, important hearings from C -Span are always available on the net.

Time to send a signal to the coastal “mediots” shoving their agendas in our eyeballs.

How about a FReeper boycott of cable/satellite? Maybe many thousands of letters, all canceling on a certain date would get their attention
