At this point, since I know we are cable TV obsessed (it's our vice), and I know we can't live without internet, we just pay what they charge and let it go. When it goes up every year, we just adjust our spreadsheet. The truth is, it's pennies a day, really, when you break it down and we have room in the budget for it. It's one of our few splurges and I honestly don't want to deal with numerous streaming services because, for one thing, our WiFi is spotty and unreliable, and I don't want to have to remember which shows I can watch on which services. I like turning on my TV and being able to record stuff on the DVR, and use On Demand, etc. I'm a TV spoiled brat, and I'm okay with that. LOL.
