Has anyone given up cable or satellite TV for internet?

We’ve never had cable in our twenty years of marriage except for one 18-month period that ended 2 weeks ago - thank goodness! I got sick of paying for something that bugged me more than made me happy! I am so much happier without it! My kids grumbled for one day, but then got over it. Actually, we’re on one of our famous (in our house anyway!) TV hiatus’s. We do this a couple times a year - take anywhere from one to five months off of any TV. Life is better without it. Kids study, practice, argue, play board games, play euchre with us, go outside, etc. And in general - there is a happier vibe in the house! This hiatus is a little different - we decided we would still watch Colts games and a Netflix once in a while. I would still like to shop around for cheaper internet and phone than i have.

Go for it!
