I Quit Watching TV Almost a Year Ago and Do Not Miss It One Bit!

No more watching a show, then have a series of commercials come on that is so long that you forget what you were watching. It got so, that if you watch a hour long show, over twenty minutes would be in commercials, then another eight minutes would be promotional and public service announcements. Stations that had once been commercial free "premium channels" started to add commercials. For this I paid over $100 a month. I only watched five of the channels that where part of the "hundreds of channels" I was forced to purchase in the bundled "options" available. So I wasted over $90 per month on religious programs, formerly free network stations, PBS, infomercials and lefty laced junk that I didn't want. Why? 
Cable and Satellite TV are a perfect example of the Government and Crony Big Business Corrupt Collusion we are fed-up with. So to hell with them! m/r

Bundled Cable Death Watch: Q2 Cord-Cutting Soars to 566,000 - Breitbart

by JOHN NOLTE  11 Aug 2015

The largest swindle big business ever played on the American people — forcing us to pay huge cable bills for dozens of channels we never watch — is slowly coming apart. Even with an ever-increasing population, the pay TV industry (cable and satellite) lost a net 566,000 subscribers last quarter. When you add in Q1, that’s a total of 887,000 lost customers in just six short months.

There is just no question that customers are getting tech savvy and budget savvy. The result is a growing wave of cord-cutters (last quarter was the second biggest drop in pay TV customers in history) as people discover the beauty of streaming on budget-conscious services like Netflix and Amazon, that charge around $10 a month.

For $10 a month you are not only getting more television than you could ever possibly watch in a lifetime, better still, there are no commercials and Netflix is always updating their service with their own programming.

Meanwhile, for around $100 a month pay TV is not only pummeling you with about 20 minutes of ads an hour, but forcing you to pay for a ton of networks you hate. Moreover, many of these networks get a chunk of your cable bill. Even if you don’t watch left-wing CNN and MSNBC, if they are on your package, chances are a part of your bill is going directly to both.
