I have elderly friends who still pay $200 a month for 500 channels .... and they only watch the same 2 channels every day.

I cut my cord about 15 years ago and just watch streaming TV or hundreds of downloaded movies and TV shows.

Why pay money for cable for shows you have to schedule your time around or prerecord content when you can just pay for one or two streaming services and watch stuff when you want.
