Couch Potato Report predicts half of Canada will be without traditional TV by 2026
Sigh. Should we, should we tell them?
Do you guys not have to pay for cable in order to get internet? Must be nice…
Wait, you guys have to pay for cable in order to get internet? I’ve never paid for cable in my life, just internet.
Monopolies.
A lot of the time you can theoretically do it without the bundle, but the promo prices that are the only way pricing is remotely in the neighborhood of reasonable only apply to the bundle.
No. It’s an option some companies sell as a bundle. I have gotten free cable box with free channels in order for me to get me hooked but I never plugged them in.
Haven’t had cable for like 20 years now. Shop around, don’t pay for things you don’t use.

Or if you’re in Toronto you get access to amazing ISPs like Benfield and fibrestream. $50 for 1Gb/s symmetric. Glorious
That’s not true, I’ve been with Bell for 10+ years and they’ve always had an internet only option. In fact, I know they still do. So does East Link.

No I don’t use a big telecom. I just get internet. Even if cable tv was free I wouldn’t use that trash. I have never paid for cable in my life.
I’m surprised this number isn’t lower than half already. I figured by now, any shows airing regularly could simply be streamed right from the source rather than waiting for a timeslot and ads.
Or is there a reason to keep using cable over streaming?
