with the exception of sports and certain “event programs”
Yeah but that's a hell of a big exception. People are willing to pay a lot of money for those.
My household "cut the cord" [we're Netflix-only, no cable/satellite/OTA] and the only thing we miss are the sports - even if I had to pay $20 to, say, watch an F1 race online, I'd still be way ahead of what I used to pay for cable/satellite, so I would likely pay hulu (or whoever) for it.
- iamwil 16y agoI'm hardly the one to pay for anything, but I do play for netflix. And at just $15, it's a far far better alternative than paying for cable. I get to watch anything, at any time that I want? It's the way TV should be nowadays. the only downside is that netflix recommendations don't work too well for me. Too often, I spend more time picking what to watch, rather than just watching something.
- roofone 16y agoThe other downside is you only get 2 channel audio.
- metageek 16y agoPersonally, I prefer to keep my audio quality merely decent (I have two Infiniti speakers, $100 each in 1996), so that I can still enjoy it when all I have handy is the $10 earbuds I keep in my belt pouch.
