I pay $67 a month with directv. I went a couple of years with just Netflix and streaming ? . It got old tho.......Netfix ran its course with me and I got tired of the lagging when I watched my basketball and football games. But for $67 I got 4 HD boxes, free nfl sunday ticket, $100 visa gift card and $100 from my mamma's referral.

Xfinity|$125.00. Barely look at the damn thing except for English Premiere League Football, La Liga & Serie A Football, Champion League Football, couple more sports and the AM news. Got the Amazon fire stick with Kodi thing but overall I rarely look at television.

Around $200.
We got our cable and Internet bundled together through directv.
I also got NBA league pass that's hitting the account currently as well as HBO and Starz movie channels.
Netflix is good; however, not good as a replacement cable provider for me, and they don't update their ? enough for me good ? drops and they don't get it until like a year or two later sometimes even longer if at all.
I also like to keep up with sporting events such as basketball and football and from my experience streaming is not nearly as reliable. -

I feel that nobody should be paying for cable in these times especially when you have those devices in your repertoire. I rarely watch TV unless it's NBA or Power. If it's not both of those then the TV is off -
$65 Direct TV mostly kids shows for my son and sports
But Showtime got some good shows on and I watch lil ? like Suits on Cable so it's worth it to me... -

You gotta record ? on DVR thats the closest u gonna get
They have pay-per-view -
No cable since September. Netflix and an HDMI cord to watch anything from my laptop on the TV. I don't miss much so far.

Get a hardbdrive, get fast internet, torrent everything you want to watch. Its that easy
-
Too much for wack ass xfinity. Rental agreement on my house says we can't have a dish tho (don't ask me why) otherwise i woulda switched cuz it's cheaper. I just got a fire stick with kodi and have netflix and all that but i do still watch a good amount of live tv so it's worth it for now. I don't be in the mood to try to go through the internet to stream all the time.
-
I got a unlocked Amazon box with some applications like Phoenix, movie 4K, navi,
They sell them on eBay for around 50-150$, one time price, all you need is an internet connection, and you can watch movies that come out in a week, movies in theatre, old movies, new tv shows, old tv shows, pretty much anything, all the nudie flixxx, pauper view events
Just gotta have wifi, stop paying for cable about a year and a half ago -

all you have to do is tell them you going to cancel your subscription and they will adjust your bill... -

been doing this for damn near a decade.. gotta 2tb hard drive thats damn near full... only thing is.. still doesnt help with live sports.. if I could have that, plus dl torrents. ? could finally pull the plug on cable -
I have basic cable now. Use to have direct tv in my basement for football. We have a firestick in every room with kodi installed. I wont let cable go though cuz i cant get local channels in kodi. I could do an antenna but nah. A lil over a 100 month.
-
My ? cost me £120($170) a month including internet. So I got all major sports and movie channels...
But the thing is, everything i watch airs in the US first so I still stream almost everything I watch and I got Kodi installed on the smart TV for new movies and some sports. Shows like Flash, American Crime Story don't reach the UK till weeks after airing in the US....i aint got time to wait.
I keep the ? for the kids to be honest. Movies/Music and kids channels. Plus I got Sky Go similar to HBO Go I guess...I watch the news everyday in my car on the way to work and catch football games when I'm out or have them on my phone when the kids watching TV.
I may look to reduce it, by I love the fact I can watch everything at my convience in full HD, plus they doing full box sets like netflix so...iunno.
But I have links for everything, so I don't actually need it..smh -
I get free cable since I work for the company so too bad for yall
-
as high as fast Internet is, I may as well pay for basic cable
