When we moved into our current home in 2000, I didn’t bother transferring our cable TV subscription over. With both my husband and I working long hours at Microsoft, there just didn’t seem to be a point at the time.
Though we no longer work those crazy hours, we find that we just don’t need cable or satellite TV. Our friends find this bizarre especially since we have a 64-inch TV wired to a 5.1 digital surround sound system. Though we take some ribbing, we just don’t care. With our personal DVD collection, as well as the use of the local library, Netflix, Hulu, and other internet sources, we get our fill of TV.
True we’re not up-to-date on the latest episodes, but at least we never wait long for the continuation ;)
