We haven't had cable for something like 7 years now. It's not only the gobs of money and the set schedules, but commercials are intolerable once you begin to live without them. We have Netflix, and that suits us for most needs. However, we have used a friend's HBOGO account to get Game of Thrones faster.

I would love a service where I paid $1 for each show that I watched.

Cable is dead. It's overpriced, inflexible, and you pay to watch commercials.
