I don't know about you, but I've had it with the high cost of cable television. My wife and I decided that keeping cable for two or 3 channels was not a good use of our limited resources. We didn't opt to switch to satellite either. We are now only streaming via the internet. Sure, I've had withdrawal symptoms, being the TVaholic that I am, but I'm adjusting. I'm not watching as much anymore and I only watch what I choose...not what just "happens to be on."
I miss Fox News, but I listen to conservative radio via the internet and the online live broadcasts on Foxnews.com. I want to keep informed and have found that if I really want to I can stay up to date without TV/Cable news anyway. There is such a thing as free "over-the-air" TV after all.
On a directly related topic. I also cancelled SirusXM. Being at home all the time now, I could not see the sense in paying for something that I can have free. Sorry SirusXM, but your continuous offers to resubcribe are quite annoying. The last rep that called said I could save so much by subscribing at their "special" rate. I told the rep that I could save EVEN MORE by not subscribing at all. That's like going into a store and buying something "on sale" when you could've stayed at home and not spent any money at all!
I know that this is just a short ramble, but was wanting to share my thoughts. I do enjoy tweeting still when time allows, and very rarely posting or reading something on that old thing called Facebook. :-)
