Bought an antenna 10 years ago and haven't looked back. Sports bar for some games not over the air. $0.41/month and dropping.
My wife has been bitching about missing the Bachelorette but I haven't been personally bothered until now. I've been wanting to make the switch to streaming but it seems like there is always disputes between provider and networks regardless. I don't watch much TV other than sports but FSSW seems to be a problem with some of the streaming options.
Streaming services are starting to creep up in price too. Guessing it won’t be long before they put the satellite companies out of business and become more expensive by adding multiple a la carte options.I've noticed that as well. Everything just isn't as quick. I'm guessing I'll just get out of the habit of changing channels as much if there isn't a way to fix that. At $70/month I think I can deal with that inconvenience.
Another major benefit not mentioned here yet is the lack of equipment and wires. Literally just plug a TV into a wall and you are done.

"free" but they will harass you no end to make a "donation" of at least $5 per monthTry the 'Locast' app, it's free and gives you local channels (ABC included). I just downloaded it for my RukoTV and will watch the games via the local DFW ABC broadcast. Should also work for FireTV, Androidtv, Appletv.

Yah I pay the bills at my house and somehow my in laws have my streaming log-ins and they don’t contribute a red penny. Lol.matter of time and they all force you into channels you have no interest in ever watching. the one thing you can do however is share log in's which helps defray some of the cost
Also might be able to watch those abc broadcasts via the espn app. It’s showing on the upcoming list. Just not sure if they are smart enough to know to block it as part of the dispute w DTV or not.

And cancel whenever. I subscribe to Netflix for a couple months then cancel, switch to prime and watch their stuff, etc. Cancel that and go to Hulu for a little bit. I canceled Netflix again and have been watching alot of hbo max. When I get tired of that I'll go back to Netflix and watch the stuff I've missed.
We keep Sling all the time. Disney + for the kid and rotate others basically.
Have you seen The Flight Attendant on HBO Max? I thought it was pretty good and Kaley Cuoco was very good.
I would watch her read the phone book..... that show is really good. Glad to see they just picked it up for a second season.Have you seen The Flight Attendant on HBO Max? I thought it was pretty good and Kaley Cuoco was very good.
