Almost all my favorite shows are in the internet, on demand the day after they air on tv... So why do I have cable when I don't watch it? Well as of today, I don't. Now all I need to do is rearrange my Living room so I can plug my laptop into my TV, and presto! TV on demand..... http://coolmunity.com/html/emoticons/neener.gif and I save $80 on cable tv that I don't watch!
Sorry, I need my 65" HD TV, especially when hockey is on.
I wish i could get my cable ala cart. I really only watch about 8 channels. Unfortunitly they are all cable channels: The History Channel, Comedy Central, TLC, Discovery Channel, ESPN, the Travel Channel, FX for movies and MTV for Pimp My Ride/ Cribbs. The rest of the stuff i could easliy do with out.Quote:

Oh, i see, kind of like universal pay-per-view? I'd be into that. I dont watch much TV as it is. Paying $100 a month for cable and internet seams excesive to me considering what shows I actually do watch and usage of the internet. Its a shame that the cable/internet industry isn't more competitive.Quote:
