Re: Life without cable or satellite TV?
I did this about three years ago. My wife was in her second year of Medical School and found herself distracted by all the stupid shows on cable. Since I don't watch much other than sports and history channel I agreed and we haven't had anything but the basic package (since it's cheaper bundled with cable modem than nothing) which includes the main networks, Discovery, Food Network, Bravo and two or so more.
Sure I miss ESPN, but when there's something worth seeing we usually go to some bar to watch it. Usually we end up putting in a movie if we feel like watching TV anyways so not a big deal really, and saving $30-XX per month is always nice. That being said, once she's done with school we're getting a big screen and the pimped out HD package so I can watch sports and nature shows the way they were meant to be seen.
