I've seen this argument before, and it still seems odd to me. I get the argument of paying more for convenience, but comparing to buying every possible other service at once annoys me. Most cable cutters I know are smart about it. They pay for one or two services, for less than a quarter the cost of cable. For variety, you can stop one subscription and start another, say when you finish binge watching a show available on Netflix and want to watch something on Hulu. Do you really watch so much TV that you need "3 out of 4 of the premium movie channels, sling tv, an antennae with DVR from Amazon, Netflix, maybe Hulu or something else" all at once?
- wil421 10y agoYou are right and I have heard of the buy, watch, cancel and repeat. It's similar to what I do when my promotional pricing runs out with cable. My comparison was for what I currently have to what it would cost to get the same experience from cord cutting. It was an apples to apples comparison. All that said, once google fiber gets to my street I am going to give cord cutting a try. Hell I'll probably read more anyway.
