$70 Cable Bill

I am tired of paying $70/mo for my DirecTV service.  My family only watches 10-12 of the 250+ channels of service.  I called DirecTV and they dropped my rate down to $62/mo.  I think that is still $30 too high.  So, I am going to cancel service on November 12th which is when my contract is up. 

Internet TV is all the rage.  We have a netflix subscription already.  Maybe we can go Internet TV starting November 13th?  Now until then, I am going to research, review, and post what Internet TV options are out there.  Stay tuned.

  2. I got an LG Blu-ray DVD for Xmas last year. I've been running streaming Netflix ever since and love it. A great selection of newer movies, TV series, and Starz has its own selection.
    Streaming over my RTC 6mg DSL has not been a problem, and shows are often in HD (although not Dolby Digital).
    As to cable, I went with Dish Network when RTC started offering it, with a $40/mth pk that I'm happy with.
