    Finally Getting Rid Of Cable TV

    So today I am dropping off my cable boxed to Comcast. I finally set up my Roku boxes and after 1 night I am doing okay. My wife and I lost access to about half of the show we watch but we will deal. Some we can get on the PC and the money we will save will be nice.

    Hats off to you! If only I could do without sports I would be able to cut satellite.

      Good Luck! I've been cable/satellite free for a couple years now. Mainly do netflix on the roku but I have ESPN on the xbox for college football. Plus still get network tv over the air.

        Between hulu, netflix streaming, and other cable channel web pages you can find everything

            No need for cable/satellite anymore these days. How much were you paying per month?

                  I have neither cable nor sat nor netflix. Its a minor price to pay for freedom.
