Title: Do you have cable?
Post by: melodylogan45 on April 22, 2017, 05:43:28 am: I use to have cable years ago, but I no longer have it. I have regular tv. They seem to add different program channels to regular tv broadcasting, which is great.

Post by: debidoo on April 22, 2017, 08:18:01 am: No too expensive - I kept it when my husband was alive because he was basically bedridden/housebound and he liked to watch television. So I kept both cable and netflix to make sure he had plenty of choice but when he passed away I cancelled the cable and just kept netflix which gives me plenty to watch for a reasonable price.

Post by: tnshpalmer85 on April 22, 2017, 09:23:03 am: I have not had cable for a few years now and I do not think I will ever get cable again. It is a waste of money to me. I have Netflix and Amazon Prime. They have so many movies and TV shows to choose from and a lot cheaper than having cable.

Title: Re: Do you have cable?
Post by: mcornwell on April 22, 2017, 11:41:51 pm: I still have cable.It gets more expensive all the time.I don't know if I will get rid of it completely,but I will at least downgrade it in the near future because I recently became an Amazon Prime member and I switched my Netflix from DVDs to streaming.Most of what I used to get from cable I can get from them.

Title: Re: Do you have cable?
Post by: pectacon on April 23, 2017, 09:42:55 am: Used to but got rid of it. It was too expensive for how few channels I watched. Regular TV has since added a few channels I like better anyway, with older TV shows etc.

Post by: cathy37 on April 23, 2017, 02:29:45 pm: I have Direct TV now because I got a good deal on the price. I had Dish Network but the price kept going on until it was about $150 a month.
Title: Re: Do you have cable?
Post by: monnee on April 23, 2017, 04:38:32 pm: No, because I don't want to pay for all them channels I don't watch.

Title: Re: Do you have cable?
Post by: SherylsShado on April 23, 2017, 07:25:18 pm: no cable.........I've watched shows & movies on-line with You Tube. Also have Amazon Prime Membership which includes shows/movies and pre-paid for 5 years of Rabbit TV (which I regret & will not be renewing when it's expired, even though it was only $5 a year.........it's so useless, total scam if you ask me!)

Post by: Worldof420 on April 23, 2017, 07:38:20 pm: No i do not.if i have nothing interesting to watch so i wouldn't bother switching to the same channel.
Title: Re: Do you have cable?
Post by: lmrbean on April 23, 2017, 09:38:34 pm: Yes, we have cable, plus Netflix and Amazon. My husband loves to watch a lot of tv. Though I am very annoyed with Netflix right now, because we were watching all the old X-Files, starting with season 1, and Netflix has just removed it from their line-up.

Title: Re: Do you have cable?
Post by: adriarobi on April 24, 2017, 06:45:29 am: I like the cable news stations, the weather channel etc.

While I am very limited budget-wise, it is worth it for me.

Post by: squirrelgirl44 on April 24, 2017, 08:29:33 am: I do, but I pay way more for it than I want to. I do watch a lot of TV, so I appreciate having it. However, I've noticed lately that I'm a missing a bunch of channels that I used to have so it's probably time to call the company and find out why I'm paying more for less.

I have cable at a good price
How good is a good price?

I ditched cable years ago for a Roku with lots of free channels and added Netflix. I use Amazon Prime for the shipping savings, but there are some good movies on it.
Title: Re: Do you have cable?
Post by: kingozzy on April 24, 2017, 12:58:16 pm: Yes I have cable, I have a package deal with cable and internet in my home. Works pretty good, but it isn't the cheapest.
Title: Re: Do you have cable?
Post by: yikes77 on April 24, 2017, 01:51:39 pm: Satellite, but will consider cutting back on channels and packages.

Post by: steveng1 on April 26, 2017, 07:41:22 am: Yeah I do, pretty cool at times although i don't really watch much tv these days ::)
Title: Re: Do you have cable?
Post by: nmbrown863 on April 26, 2017, 10:04:05 pm: I have directv but we are seriously considering getting rid of it. We have netflix and we also recently got an amazon fire stick with kodi. You can watch anything with kodi so my husband see's no sense in keeping cable. I am honestly a little iffy about the kodi though...
