Just curious--because of neesy talking about watching youtube on her laptop . And yeah...my misadventure with HBO made me wonder, too... Do you have cable? Or use a streaming service on your tv? Or do you mainly watch shows and movies on a laptop? Does anyone besides me watch DVDs anymore? I have Netflix on my laptop and iPad, but I very rarely watch anything on those. Mostly, I use Roku on my living room tv...which I have loaded with apps. (I should probably delete some.) I have another tv that I just use to watch DVDs. |

Cable is standard here.
We have about 50 freely available channels.
I rarely watch Tv, mostly Documentarie Channels.
I watch movies and series online only on my desktop PC, which
is connected to the TV.

🤔 Interesting. So are you saying you don’t have to pay for cable service? My brother and I just recently convinced our Dad to switch over to streaming instead of paying for satellite. He was paying close to $200 a month and only using a few channels. I said, “ Pop, you’re nuts! Contemporize, man!” 😁 It’s crazy to me how many options there are out there for tv and movies...most of them very affordable, too. |

We have to pay for cable tv, it`s 10 € a month.
But you don`t have to ask for cable tv, it's
part of the lease, it`s plug and play.

I am sorry. I could NOT let that one go by. I was powerless to refuse.

I have some streaming services, but I primarily watch Blu rays and 4K Blu rays.
Physical media kicks the sh** out of streaming any day of the millennium.

I have cable for local stuff (Heat and Dolphins games) and streaming for most everything else
and yes I still watch discs. I have a 4k blu-ray player and prefer watching movies on disc if I have a choice between disc and streaming
I rarely watch TV on any device other than my actual television. Sometimes if I'm somewhere other than home (like a hotel room), I might watch streaming on my i-pad

I got cable tv, but only the FTA channels. The content I pay for, are streaming services, like Netflix, HBO etc, and view with Chromecast. Not too happy with their content though.

Here is an idea, everyone gets rid of their cable services. What will cable companies do in response? Make it for free of course.

Question for the yankees, do you get HBO on basic cable?
