With so many streaming platforms available now, do you still pay for traditional cable TV? Or have you fully switched to streaming services? What made you stay or switch?

I still keep cable for my parents. They like the familiarity and flipping through channels. I use streaming for myself, but it’s wild how fast tech changes habits. Just five years ago, cable felt essential---now it’s mostly background noise unless you’re into live news or regional sports.

I was on the fence about canceling cable until my promo pricing ended. Once the bill spiked, I started comparing options. I checked reviews, looked at channel packages, and even reached out to spectrum customer service https://spectrum.pissedconsumer.com/customer-service.html to see what could be adjusted. Turns out, even after trimming down my plan, I was still paying more than I would with two streaming services combined. So I made the switch. I miss live local channels a bit, but the flexibility of streaming, no contracts, and cheaper monthly costs make up for it. Cable’s great for some, but streaming fits my lifestyle better.

Used to - but since Prime started putting ads on the SERVICE I FUCKING PAID FOR - now not so much
