I was an early cord cutter, maybe 10 years ago. Then I cut linear because we rarely watched it, and the promotion I had for directv streaming expired (was getting an amazing deal at $10 for directv stream, + hbo with the at&t unlimited mobile plan). I now only want linear tv for NFL, but I tried every which way to see how I could spend as little as possible, but I can't get it any cheaper than about $60/month. I am not spending that just to watch football. And then you also need prime for thursday. And something else for red zone. And you need to make sure you get ESPN. But not ESPN+ because that's worthless. And not NFL+, what the heck is that? It's all absurd and I hate it. I now use some free iptv sources to watch games. Quality isn't awesome, but the price is right. The way I see it, they have driven me to it.
