I cut the cord to cable/dish a few years ago because it was too expensive for content I didn't watch. Last year the local telco offered a fiber connection and a great introductory offer to their TV service. We did it for the 2 weeks of the Olympics, but found most of it was available streaming on the web. Between the Redbox and online streaming services (Netflix, Hulu, etc) we found we didn't watch live TV. Watching YouTube 10 years ago was painful on my dial-up connection. Today between 3 iOS devices, Wii and the XBox 360, we are all streaming video and no one on a traditional computer.
