If it weren’t for Fox News, FX, and the Comedy Channel, I would drop it too. Netflix takes care of all movie needs very nicely.

I recently cut my sat package down to from the most deluxe to the most basic, for that very reason. Netflix watch instantly completely eliminates the need for the premium packages. My bill went from $130 to $30.

Fox News and HGTV are the only reasons I didn't drop it altogether.

Hard to believe it’s coming up on one year since I cancelled tv service.

Dittoes. I could get by on broadcast although I would miss Fox News. Most of the TV I watch is on the Retro Television Network (RTV) and THiS-TV. RTV is basically old Universal TV shows although tere are times I like to call it the Stephen J. Cannell, Donald Bellisario and Glenn Larson Network, it seems any TV show they have made from 1970 or so had at least one, if not more, of these producers involved. THiS-TV is mainly movies with some TV shows, usually MGM made. Here in Pittsburgh, I watch RTV-Pittsburgh on virtual channel 11-2 (UHF 48), RTV-Steubenville (OH) virtual channel 9-2 (VHF 9) and THiS-TV on virtual 4-2 (UHF 51).

Despite some problems, one thing I like about HDTV is that you can have subchannels of alternate programming.
