We rarely use the TV alone here, we each have phones, computers, when we are alone, and you can stream to all of those devices anyway - what we use the TV for is when my daughter and I watch something together - the TV still have value there for us.I'm living without television and it's ok. There's radio, records, Wi-Fi internet, why do I need to add cable television to that?
You can use a TV more as a monitor for streaming media, or hook up to rabbit ears for OTA broadcast, and that's great. But I don't have a television here at all, of any kind, and I don't miss it one bit.
We are now using Roku to stream and with the fiber optic and the mesh router system I put in the house; speed, quality, and reliability has improved.Hate having to pay $50 for cable tv I hardly use any more. (Part of my lease) Most of my tv watching is free streaming Internet media. My cousin cut the cord a year ago and is quite happy about it.
Still hating any and all commercials though.
I love my Roku Ultra. Been using it for the last two years using an Ethernet connection. Never lags...and has made me increasingly ambivalent towards cable television.We are now using Roku to stream and with the fiber optic and the mesh router system I put in the house; speed, quality, and reliability has improved.
