JULY 2021... marks the date that my wife and I finnally eliminated our dependence upon CABLE TV... Prior to this month, we had internet, cable, and phone from our local cable provider and no only were we experience connectivity problems but technical support was lacking in competence as well.
We both have cell phones so we no longer needed our landline through our cable provider.
We went from a cable coax connection to the internet to a fiber optic internet connect which is must faster and much more reliable and has greater bandwidth than cable internet.
We went from cable TV to HULU LIVE which includes much more than our current cable package and the fee is much less than what we were paying.
In short, we are getting more for less money each month.
We are streaming HULU through a ROKU device which is a one time equipment purchase. And, we have all of ROKU's free channels and movies as well.
We also have a KODI box which was a one time equipment purchase and while it offers access to more recent movies and is no always reliable... so, we don't use it much.
Later in the week, we are going to make another one time equipment purchase for a digital antenna where once connected to our TV, we will be able to watch local channels free-of-charge within a 50-100 mile radius.
Our HULU contract is on a month-to-month basis which is good... but our fiber WIFI is on a 2 year contract which does gives us some concern but something with which we have to live...
BREAK FREE OF CABLE...
