    Cable is probably cheaper on average now compared to streaming, especially since ISPs are just handing them out for free when you upgrade your internet.

      Cable should be vastly cheaper than streaming since it is double dipping on payment models. Paying for access and then also paying through watching ads means cable should be half or less what the current rate is.

        Streaming platforms double-dip too. They collect and sell your useage metrics while also either charging you for access or showing you ads.

      Absolutely not. My 65+ year old parents just cut the cord recently because they were paying over $250 for cable. They now pay around $90 for Hulu+Live and get almost everything they had before, with a couple of small exceptions.
