The Spurs are the only reason I subscribe to DirecTV.. As soon as they got eliminated I downgraded to the lowest tier option to save cash..honestly dont even notice the loss of channels.. I would have cancelled until the season starts again, but Im on contract..Even at a time when streaming is the most popular method for TV, the cable/satellite industry hiked up their prices this year.. Shits just not worth a hundred or more dollars per month IMO

And you can stream any game you want, but why spend all this cash on nice TV's to stream some shitty ass low def unreliable feed that always seems to fuck up at the worst possible time?

I agree with cord cutting but the problem is these cable companies have already figured that out and are going to jack up the internet bill to make up for their loss in Cable revenue.

Why would you pay for this when you can get these channel lists on Kodi for free? By the way how many of these services are supporting terrorist groups overseas?

Sports are available by streaming, and TV shows you can get anywhere. News in on the internet, but can use Kodi if you really need to watch live news. That covers my TV watching tbh

Some channels are super quality HD, some are good enough quality HD.
A very few ones might be SD.
The ones I watch regularly are super good quality HD - luckily.
I'm not super picky tbh

Cut my cable bill by 125 dollars.
I'm on their cheapest plan which is 40 dollars and I get all the channels I watch. Has ESPN 1 and 2, both FS1/2, NSNBC and AMC.
You also get a virtual DVR that comes at no cost so you dont have to worry about missing a live event if you're not home or whatever.

Maybe for value.. Their cable feed is way too compressed, you can see all the little squares when it fucks up. DirecTV's is much cleaner
