Cut the Cable Cord - its kinda easy
/Many people are moving to cut the “cord” from Satellite Cable TV. With buying just a few streaming services, you might lower your bill.
This will be one of the big benefits of high speed broadband. You can do this now, with your slower internet. But, when broadband arrives - you’ll be able to get high resolution 4K and much more !
In a simple description - you buy some subscriptions from streaming sources like Netflix or Disney (there are many) - then you log into them on your TV (or through a box hooked to your TV).
It’s not quite that simple but you probably have a friend that can help you.
And, for extra credit, you can install an Air TV Antenna (remember rabbit ears) - well local channels are free and in high definition. Inside antennas work pretty well and outside, even better.
This article covers many of the questions.
Millions of people are moving this way - that’s why you may see cable costs declining and “skinny” cable packages appearing - the competition is heating up !
