archedsoul 03/12/20 2:45:13 PM #7:	Cable is cheaper than streaming if you have competition and don't mind switching every year. I pay for one of those super Verizon packages with a gigabit connection for $90 with all the equipment. It's $70 alone just for internet. It goes up to $200 in December, but then I'll just switch to Optimum for a year. --- "Fear cuts deeper than swords." <cite>archedsoul posted [p:935583818] in Are people...

AsucaHayashi 03/12/20 2:49:42 PM #12:	here they've basically merged "cable"+streaming channels like HBO into one package... so with internet you have access to all the live TV stuff and can stream movies/TV shows. don't you guys have that? of course, it costs more but still less than having the two separately. --- http://abload.de/img/pcgamingxtuvt.jpg https://imgur.com/9Yv0R2Z <cite>AsucaHayashi posted [p:935584060] in Are people...

Villain 03/12/20 2:50:57 PM #13:	Solid Sonic posted... Should I cancel cable and pay for Hulu + Live TV? How much live TV do you watch? I would also consider what the cost is to purchase episodes of shows you watch on cable vs the cost of the cable subscription.
