I should probably call them but I also cancelled the monthly insurance because I only have a single DVR now and satellite, so I don't know if there will be a cost involved. To be honest, I'm really sick of DTV and the constant customer service calls I need to make each year in order to lower the bill and such. Even though I deactivated 4 receivers back in 2015, they failed to deactivate one of them and charged me for 14 months before I caught their error. They're really a bunch of no-talent assclowns. |

I cut the cable this year almost completely. Other than Google Fiber internet, I'm good.
This will be my first year without Sunday Ticket in over 10 years. |

I'm a true cord-cutter. I only have an OTA antenna with a Tablo so I can record any program of interest. I can't even keep up with all that recorded content.
My Rokus are nice because it offers a bunch of free movies and other options. Content is a real problem for me and why I truly cut the cord. ESPN is horrible and why has the Travel Channel turned into Andrew Zimmern 24/7? I must admit I signed up for Sling TV Orange (Dish Network) this month for March Madness. It was $20 and is already cancelled, so it will be disconnected in a couple of weeks. |

DirecTV full boat, Netflix, Prime (never watch it), Spotify premium. I don't watch much tv or movies and 99% of what I do watch is recorded so I can ff if needed. HBO Go on Roku is good for that.

Pretty interesting results. Around a third of us are cord cutters (no cable or satellite TV). Four in five have Netflix, which doesn't really surprise me. I'm a bit surprised by Amazon Prime, though. I have Prime, but I rarely actually watch any video on it. Hulu's abut where I would have expected. They just don't seem to be able to get the value proposition right.
Pretty surprised by Amazon Music being so high. That has to be Alexa-driven, right? |

Our contract ends in June, and the guy knocked our monthly hit down to $70 just to keep us until then, because I was ready to pay the cancellation fee to get rid of it in January. So, this will be my first NFL season with no Sunday Ticket. |

I've watched maybe four things on there in the last year, but I voted for it in the poll. I wouldn't sign up for the streaming service on its own, and I would assume many people that voted for it in the poll are in that same boat. Just trying to guess why the numbers might be surprisingly high. |
