[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My parents were at $155 a month for basic cable and one cable box. I had already switched them over to two Roku boxes with Sling, Hulu, the Criterion Channel and Curiosity Stream, plus some free apps like Tagesschau and DW TV. I gently moved them into a remote control unlike cable and my father took to it right away. My mother wanted to stay with the cable box, but at $155 a month, it way getting ridiculous.

The last straw came when Spectrum increase prices again and I called them and said "we're paying $165 for basic cable"?  The lady suggested we cut some of the channels out of basic to bring the cost back to $155. I got angry and canceled the service right there.  My mother did get used to the Roku remote and does quite well with it now.[/quote]

How much are they at now?[/quote]

BTW, the thing I like is you can turn streams on and off now and you aren't beholden to the cable company. Consumers need leverage.

The days of outrageous monthly fees per box, extra charges from Hi Def, and the monthly fee (which was a scam) for the "regional sports fee" are gone.

Can you believe the RSN fee they levied by force, even if you hated sports and wanted nothing to do with it?[/quote]
