I only have netfix right now and pay $11 a month to watch whatever I want. It's a much better deal.
Correct. I can afford it, but if I'm gonna pay that much for cable, I better use it for more than 3 hours a week. Nowadays, the only TV that I watch is football...so much so that before football season started, my tv hadn't been on without Netflix in at least a couple of months.
It's like buying a car, putting 100 miles on it in a year, but still paying full price for car insurance. It's a silly expense.
It's just unfortunate that I have Netflix, Amazon Prime, and an antenna that gets 50 channels, but I still can't watch the game clearly. Oh well...I'll come up with something to increase the antenna reception, and life will be fine again.
