[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Sport - you can get ESPN on slingTV for $20/month
HululPlus - $8/month
Netflix - $8month
NFL Network - $200 for the season (available on xbox or we stream for the laptop)

My guess is you would say more than $50/month... we saved over $100/month when we canceled.[/quote]
I tried renegotiating with them 2 years ago, and the best I could get was free HBO.  My spouse did not want to drop cable then, so we did another 2-year agreement.  Now we're up for renewal again, and we are cutting the cable tv cord.  We'll have FIOS internet, and MagicJack phone.  For tv, we'll have Roku with Amazon Prime, Netflix, and HBO Now.  For sports & news & PBS & network shows, we are using a $30 digital antenna that gets tons of channels.  Saving about $100 per month, and getting more useful tv options than cable offered.

We tried cutting the cord and couldn't cut (sorry) it. We don't even watch that much TV, but it got tiresome trying to stream network shows or rely on the digital antenna, which worked well sometimes but not other times. We ended up switching to RCN from Verizon. I'll NEVER go back to Verizon after the runaround we got from them. [/quote]
