Between that and streaming shows we want to see on the web, we don't miss cable in the least bit.cable tv providershttp://www.cabletvcompanies.org/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11834435.post-1150215206837259262006-06-13T09:13:00.000-07:002006-06-13T09:13:00.000-07:00I've been cable free for years, too. it's all abo...I've been cable free for years, too. it's all about downloading what I wanna see and watching it on my computer. which also happens to be a way better display than my TV. plus, my bunny ears get me 5 channels here, anyway.gwillihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13993629531173823519noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11834435.post-1149869414139881192006-06-09T09:10:00.000-07:002006-06-09T09:10:00.000-07:00I haven't had cable for 5 years.

Then I realized that there is SO MUCH stuff on cable that there isn's really much of a common cultural viewing experience anyway (Not like there was when there were only 3 channels.) Anyway, with the internet and DVDs he/we don't really miss it very much. When we do sit down to watch something, it is a conscious choice. The danger of cable (for me) is getting sucked into mindless junk and wasting time. I only miss HGTV! I wish the cable companies would let you order 5 channels for $10/month..then I would do it...otherwise it's a waste of my money.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
