Have not cut the cable due to wife and daughter, however both express willingness.
Have used Netflix, Amazon, recently SlingTV.
Latest discovery for me, is the huge amount of excellent content on YouTube.
Anybody that worries over lack of content, after cutting the cord is very mistaken.
Last Sunday I watched the Brazil F1 race on NBC Sorts Network via Sling TV.
But sports?
Add me to the list, have DSL, Roku, and Over The Air. Pay only for the DSL and have hundreds of channels for free with this combo. OTA is very high definition and is the basic cable package but for free with better definition.
Count me in, please!
I think it's great that you let us know about your advance plans for vanities.
What else do we have to look forward to?
Please include me on your ping list. Thank you.
Sign me up.
I have Direct Satellite and they do not have OANN. I had it on ATT Uverse before I switched over. I am contemplating canceling Direct TV and paying the penalty. I can go to my ROKU and get Sling TV and OANN for much less money than I pay now.
Tried Roku in the vacation home on a desolate mountain top but the elders didn’t like waiting so long for things to load.
So first ask yourself HOW GOOD IS YOUR MAXIMUM POTENTIAL INTERNET SPEED?
In a big city you can pay more for up to 300. On that mountaintop there were speeds around 8 or 9. Fuhgeddaboudit. We had to go back to satellite.
If you are thrilled with your online speeds now, you can cut the cord. If not, you won’t be happy. We pay for 300 at home with lots of extenders posted on the ceilings in our home network so we get great speeds, but with all the sports watched, we still can’t cut the cord.
add me.
Please include me on your list. As sports channels become available elsewhere maybe we can do it too.
Right now we are paying for DISH and it is excellent. Everything we could ever want. On demand everywhere. I have not much time to watch any of it. Need fast distraction for kids and especially for the least patient “kid” of all, Grandma with Alzheimer’s. A crabby mood is horrible but apparently 2 minutes of Sandra Bullock and she is happy.
But I am interested in finding out cord cutting options for the future.
Cut the cord over a year ago. Please put me on Ping list, too.
If you build it (ping list), they will come.
Add me to the list please. Just looking for the right excuse to cut the cord.
Oh also...I’ve heard Levin advertising for CRTV. It’s an online subscription TV service that will have lots of conservatives on. $89/year intro price.
Please add me to your list. Trying to figure out how to get Roku working (still a noob) and where to go from there.
We cut the cord about 7 years ago now. It was ‘withdraw-el-y’ for the first month or so. Haven’t missed it since then. I highly encourage it. We have nearly a hundred bucks a month now for whatever we want, instead of being insulted from every channel.
Pingth me-th please-th?
Hey! I am TOTALLY in!
Been cord-cut for 4 years. Roku, primarily.
1. Amazon and Netflix are my paid for stuff. (Well, OAN too)
2. Early on, I got Playon, with the OneChannel plugin. Nearly anything you can imagine on there.
3. Plex - with the inclusion of the SS-Plex and “Let Me Watch This” channels, there is very little I can’t find when I want to watch it.
4. XTV - Although it can be a bit buggy/laggy at times, I can watch Fox News (or most other news channels) pretty much “live”.
It is a plethora of movies, TV shows, documentaries, etc. A cornucopia.
It’s like trying to drink from a fire hose.
I would love to hear from other cutters what gems they find and how they improve their entertainment experience.
