Wow! Digital TV? At the end of 2015? Digital set top box? What's a set top box?
There's so much free stuff on the INTERNET that we don't have time for TV anymore. Here's what the new generation of Americans are doing .... (including my kids): Basically, I saw that my kids don't watch TV like they used to. Their iPhones and iPad devices are all they care about! We give them Wi-Fi, Netflix and access to App Store; they won't bother us for hours! My wife ain't got time even for basic channels. And me? I decided to experiment without cable TV. So far ... so good. 1. I got high speed INTERNET (monthly fee) - which I hooked to a top quality wireless router (one time cost). 2. Bought a sleek indoor TV antenna (one time cost). The indoor antenna is almost invisible and the broadcast channels all come for FREE. The same antenna feeds multiple TV sets (by using a splitter). Occassionally, watch shows like Nova on PBS. 3. Land line? Sounds ancient tech, right? But it's ideal for me. Whether I am in Colva or New York. The number remains the same. Magic Jack gives VoIP away for ridiculously low $3/month. 4. Netflix (< $10/month) 5. There are tonnes of free channels out there - depending on your interest. The only channel I miss is CNN. But I hear SlingTV has it, so I may opt to spend an extra $20/month. But for now, my monthly cable is cut by 65%! The cable industry calls us "Cord Cutters" ... Google it and you can read more about the trend. Buh-Bye cable TV! With the above information, there's money to be made. Can you see how? Jim Fernandes Colva / New York.
