Shouldn't we celebrate that less people are being spoon fed lies over the airwaves? Go Obama I think I see his madness

Don't make light, the Unions fought hard once upon a time and I mean Hard to make such things possible I do not like seeing things that may indeed be luxeries per se but really are not that pricey getting to be for the middle class. I don't like classes but we got em so

I am more libertarian than anything....
In any case, have you thought that government and the economy is not 100% to blame for people giving up cable? Cable prices are ridiculous.

TBH, I pay around $70/month for Directv. But I use my streaming Netflix account ($8/month) much more. Which do you think I will give up when I have to tighten my belt?

I'm not a television engineer, but, I do know you need a special antenna to get digital over the air is a lie.
This looks really fancy? Costs under $10. How fucking cheap are you? OTA hdtv is so much better quality than the same channels on cable.

You don't need a special antenna. My old one on the roof works just fine with the new channels.

Almost all cable and satellite providers have went to the new method of bait and switch sales tactics. They offer you a reasonable price for their product with a 2 year agreement. In the fine print it says they jack the price up double in the second year and charge you a hefty for cancelling if you don't pay they charge off 5x the amount to your credit score.
