Need advice on cutting cable cost.
My last bill from Att was $215...sick of paying that much to watch only a few shows. I dont want to cut the cord from cable entirely. I would like to keep basic cable and internet, but still be able to watch the shows I like on HBO and showtime. I`m already a netflix subscriber, any other suggestions ? Can you buy season passes for most of the shows on HBO and Showtime?
Thanks! Last edited by Gonzo; 02-24-2015 at 11:19 AM.. Reason: Advise me on advice. :D |

Just ditch it. You'll miss it less than you think.
I pay $50 a month for a pretty good internet connection and I don't miss any of my shows. |

If you have any cool friends that have HBO maybe offer them some sort of monthly payment to use their HBOGO? Or I will give you an invite to a really good torrent site, and you can ditch HBO or really all cable.

If you know someone with HBO then see if they will let you use their HBO GO account. Works really well on PC or XBOX
