[QUOTE="druryj, post: 2894309, member: 10465"] So here's where we are in this whole ditch the cable thing: I put $25 antennas from Best Buy in the kitchen, living room, bedroom, and spare bedroom. Got jail broke Amazon Firestick. ($75). Got a ROKU in living room. Sling TV via ROKU so we can get HGTV, CNN, Food Network, and others. (Sling is $20 month). Sling has a special right now; prepay 3 months and get a new ROKU 2 for free; so I did, and put that one in the bedroom; upgraded to Sling Blue Service for $25 month and now we get all local channels by antenna, every movie and TV show or series imaginable by Amazon Firestick, and like 44 live channels via Sling TV. Cost: $100 for 4 antennas. $75 for Amazon Fire stick (jail broken). $40 for 1 ROKU. Second ROKU was free from Sling TV. Monthly cost from now on is $25 and We can watch pretty much anything. I mean any movie, documentary or TV show. No need for any other subscriptions like Netflix or Hulu; the Firestick has everything on it. The antennas are HIGH def for our local channels ; and Sling TV works great. With Sling Blue service package, you get like 44 live channels and you can watch different programs on up to 3 devices at same time. I even put the sling app on my phone so I can get sports channels and watch while with the wife, like when leaning on a grocery cart or something... Drawback: can't decide what to watch next be cause we have EVERYTHING. $25 per month folks; $25 per month for Sling TV Blue. Cable was around $125 per month til we ditched them. This is a no brainer to me. Cable companies are going away. [ATTACH=full]58175[/ATTACH] Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk [/QUOTE]
