Just got the notice and they're adding some channels I could care less about. Maybe time for a switch. One thing I kept them for was there reliability. I've had very few problems.streaming services are the new cable
Hulu live is an option. You should cancel the phone, and get Spectrum to drop your internet to $49.95. They will do it if you threaten to leave. If they won’t, then actually LEAVE. They have been ripping you off for a long time, you have no loyalty there. They have a $49.95 special going on, I am on it now.What options are there? I don't get enough channels for OTA only.
I ditched Spectrum TV in January because their price went up and their streaming app was horrible. I was not going to rent more boxes.
Spectrum phone + internet runs me about $90 per month. With TV my bill had crept up to $180. With YTV I got it down to a little under $150. I still have some wiggle room. Plus, my sons and my stepdaughters all have it because I'm allowed 6 people to share my account.
Yes. Usually with a streaming device such as Roku. Picture quality is good and YouTube TV doesn't have buffering issues like some used to. Hulu was really bad for me. Maybe they have improved. Have not tried Sling except for their free service.Pardon me for this question. But basically these services require me to have an internet provider already in place. Then I can choose from Hulu, You Tube, etc for a fraction of cable? Assuming their channel lineup is to my liking.
Correct?
could be costly to be careless with this stuffI just got the email as well - Will we ever be able to pay per channel? I could careless about 85% of the channels. Bet $$$ if folks started dropping like flies they would reconsider the price hike. Seems they could wait until folks went back to work. With so many people out of work right now it will be hard on them.

Can't cancel the phone. My wife works from home and needs it. Hulu Live has been going up too. The networks are greedy.Hulu live is an option.

That's an option. Except I'd like it during basketball season too.I read an article about this some time ago, back when streaming was first getting big. It predicted this kind of thing. Either that services would just end up costing as much or close to as much as cable or that you'd need to subscribe to multiple services to get all the content you want and end up paying as much as cable.
For me, I just only subscribe to streaming during college football season so I can have ESPN then drop it when the season is over.
How do you like their internet? I'm thinking of dropping Att internet for Spectrum. TIAWhat options are there? I don't get enough channels for OTA only.

It sucks. The bandwidth is inconsistent. I have to reboot the modem and router several times a week and when it is running it frequently cuts out. ATT has fiber to my house so I can switch. Before I do I want to talk with people who have it. My understanding is that it is more reliable because it uses less copper and they bury the cable coming into your house. It sill uses copper inside your house unless you want to have everything re-wired - which is expensive.How do you like their internet? I'm thinking of dropping Att internet for Spectrum. TIA
Fiber is a smaller fiber optic cable that carries multi media on different bands of the cable. It is much better than coax as a carrier. It should not require rewiring. They just take one fiber cable to your hub where your router is. If you have more than 1 tv, you may need more than one hub.It sucks. The bandwidth is inconsistent.

So they would bring it in the house?Fiber is a smaller fiber optic cable that carries multi media on different bands of the cable. It is much better than coax as a carrier.

Mine for instance comes from the main line at the drive way goes into their distribution box and then they run into the room where you need it.So they would bring it in the house?
From what I understand, fiber optic cabling needs to run in a straight line - or at least almost a straight line. It does not tolerate 90 degree turns.
