Getting rid of cable TV is actually a very good way to save a lot of money. A lot of people pay like 200+ a month on cable TV and Internet. Getting just internet will lower the bill way down around 50 a month depending where you are.
Another thing is internet speed. If your not downloading games constantly and are just watching movies / browsing web then you can go for the cheaper level of internet. A 50/10 speed is going to do the exact same as a 100/10 or 1000/10 for everything. A bigger number here won't make your gaming speed any better.
Also everyone should double check if your cable provider has a max download per month. If they do pay the extra few bucks to make it unlimited. If you constantly watch 4k movies you can hit the limit quick.
Try Pluto.tv ( https://pluto.tv ) you get 250 FREE channels. Roku, Website, iOS, Android, Smart TV app supported. Some channels are actually live while others like OANN Encore channel are the past weeks highlights I think. Not bad, although sometimes there is a bit of buffering on certain channels. No account needed. It's not great, but it's the best service I've found of it's kind with a lot to choose from. I hardly watch TV so it's good enough.
Recommendations: OANN Encore (channel 249) and NewsMaxTV (channel 270). For a chuckle or if you need to expidite a stomach purge Channel 244 is Clown News Network, CNN.

-I used to work at a cable company.
Also most people don't realize this but they charge you $5-10 a month for a modem worth $45. Most people don't and end up renting for years.
Hell even a great modem is only about 100 bucks. I splurged years ago and spend 400 on a great modem and a mesh router and it's awesome.
Got myself a good modem too and I'm planning to flash it with advancedtomato.
I’m a guilty modem renter. Convinced myself it was cheaper and easier this way. I’ll look into it. Thanks pede
Netflix should have been gone by everyone by now. Completely agree.
I get all the internet and tv I want for about fifty bucks/month. Haven't had cable or satellite in at least 12 years. Haven't missed it.
