It's that time of year again, folks...that time when I start looking over our finances and bills and start wondering where to trim costs. Right now, I'm looking right at you Comcast/Xfinity. Sadly, I can't kill my cable internet connection as work has specific requirements for high speed connections. Plus, DSL blows and the jokers from CenturyLink hosed my neighbor over so eff them...so I have to keep Comcast cable internet.
What I don't need to keep is Comcast/Xfinity cable TV. If it were up to me I would whack every premium channel we have and use Netflix to supplement. Stuff like Roku has appeal, but I wouldn't be able to watch NFL games at home. DirecTV doesn't play well with cable internet due to some odd wiring at the house...so, I turn to you faithful 9 readers...what does your TV setup consist of? Do you use Roku or Hulu? How well does it work?
I plan on calling Comcast today to downgrade our service, like giving up one of the DVRs and cutting the premium channels, especially since Game Of Thrones is on hiatus and I have no idea when Boardwalk Empire is set to resume (oh crapola, season three of Boardwalk Empire starts in September). Anyhow, I need to scale back because our cable bill is the equivalent of a used car payment ($200 a month...I didn't say an expensive used car, now did I?)
