Managing : we are going to pause our and combo for the summer and pay for for those few months (catching up on FBI). We don’t use live or want it since we only follow and use their annual app subscription (no other sports). What are you doing for TV entertainment and how do you manage those costs?

And to think I have this richness thanks to having a month or so ago. I do not miss it at all, is the truth.

Any advice for an old lady on "cutting the cable?" I want to stop supporting FOX News' via my cable company.

I have a regular TV that has an HDMI cable, it's not a "smart TV." Do I need a "smart TV"? I barely know what that is.

I watch very little TV except news, the Olympics, stuff like that. Every now and then something else.

Youtube TV carries FOX, so that is out, plus it's expensive.

Thanks to @pivoinebleue for posting and reminding me about this.

@pivoinebleue I gave up the cable box and now I pay only for what I actually watch through my Roku device. No more subsidizing fascist propaganda. And believe me I never go looking for anything on Fox.

In 2023, a wave of big contracts between Fox News and TV providers for subscriber fees are set to expire. These contracts make up a major source of Fox News’ subscriber fee revenue. If we want to stop paying the "Fox fee," now is the time to act.

>Pay for cable or satellite TV? You’re subsidizing Fox News whether you watch it or not.
Your cable or satellite TV provider pays a subscriber fee to carry Fox News. That cost is passed directly on to YOU.

Fox News, Unapologetic and Unwavering, Steams Ahead After Staggering Dominion Settlement | Vanity Fair

>Fox kept touting its ratings as the trial loomed, and now that it’s over, the cable giant is sure to remain focused on the bottom line. “This was always, always about the money,” says one Murdoch associate.

Following Fox News’ massive defamation settlement paid out to Dominion Election Systems, the network is now pursuing an even more aggressive strategy to raise revenue by increasing the fee paid by cable and satellite providers to $3 per subscriber, according to a new report from Vanity Fair.

So the consumer is paying the Dominion Lawsuit for Fox.
I am so glad that I dumped my cable co last year.

raises their prices after remove and canceling a ton of content from their service. Typical corporate BS. Less product for more money! I didn't find that HBOMax was even worth the $11.99/month that I was paying at a special price for the first year during the pandemic. After slogging through the horrible joke that was Wonder Woman 1984 I felt like they owed me money! After cutting the cord now I need to dam the stream!

Wife and I are back to discussing cord-cutting. We barely watch live broadcast television, maybe a dozen channels throughout the week. Aside from news and AEW everything we watch is on a streaming platform.

After doing some comparing I think we might end up going with YouTubeTV. The Hulu bundle was a contender but ESPN is wasted on us. Sling was too limited.

Now to consider going back to FIOS or stick with Optimum for Internet.

Been a customer for over 25 years. Every 2 years, I've had to call and go beg to get a decent deal instead of the indecent normal price. My contract is just about up and for the first time in all those years, they're calling me to offer a deal. Also getting emails about new equipment and faster speeds.

Sorryt, Too little. Too late. You should have been doing this all along when you still had a monopoly. You've treated us like crap when we had now choice. Now we do.
