    We just retired full time, I have been a Direct TV customer for as long as I can remember, Now the price has slowly climbed to almost 200.00 a mounth, for the programing and all the equipment rentals. I am planning to drop it and go to streaming from netflix, and either HULU or something else depending on priceing. The only real thing I’ll miss is the Baseball season but we can get that on the local radio. I no longer watch the NFL at all, havn’t sence the Kraprinick BS and the kneeling thing. I mean I just can’t rap my head around what the multi millionaires of the NFL thinks about this country. I think I’ll get a lot more done in my shop when I’m not wasting time watching the boob tube. I have 12mbs internet and it will stream ok, plus with Amazon prime video from the free shipping deal. I have more than enoughthing to cut into my shop time. Besides with all money I can save, I can run a gas line to my shop put in a 80,000btu Max heater, insulate the shop and have a place to work during the winter. Yea!
    Take care all

      We are transitioning to the Android TV box, $30 including shipping, no monthly fees. Local TV via digital over-the-air antenna. 100 megabyte internet connection works just fine. Wouldn't go back to satellite or cable tv for anything. We had Centurylink here for a couple of months, but what a joke it was. Dial-up would have been just as enjoyable.

        With an Android tv box you would not need an Amazon prime account or a Netflix subscription. All sports channels from any country are available.

        You could get that gas line toyour shop sooner.

          Having a heated shop in the winter is the best. I figured I'd be in my shop all year round, but there are just so many things we do as a family in the summer time that I didn't use my shop at all last summer. But when winter rolls around, the shop definitely turns into a playground.

            Tried HULU, their customer service is close to nil as can be imagined, just use Netflix now
