TopicHow much are cable "cord cutters" actually saving?

the savings come about when people split tv service bundles from sling, directvnow, hulu tv, youtube tv etc.

that wasn't really possible with traditional cable unless you lived under the same roof. if you can just cut network broadcasting all together you'll most certainly come out ahead.

anyways as for me personally i pay $30 a month for my internet, no caps. i just sign in with a cable subscription that my uncle has to view tv anywhere app content for most of the major networks on my apple tv. all of the tv anywhere apps (abc,fox,espn,etc) populate content in the tv app so i don't really have to go through them to find new stuff to watch. it also keeps track of what shows i'm watching so if something airs it will show up in my "up next" section so i can go ahead and watch it.

the only drawback is some networks make you wait 24 hours before you can stream something that they've aired, but that's becoming increasingly rare.

i've tucked all the tv anywhere apps that don't support live tv into a folder so they don't clutter my main screen. the tv anywhere apps that do have live tv integrated like fox (fx/fxm/natgeo) and espn, i keep visible and easily accessible.

i guess using my uncles sign in could qualify me as a leech, but i've been his tech support for just about everything for the past 10 years so i'm pretty sure it's a fair trade (and yes he is aware).
