I love my 5G cube.
I canceled comcrap gor Verizon with a free nintendo switch and 200 gift card RIP COMCRAP
The cyber sleuths were right back in 2006 when adelphia was sold to xfinity/comcast. They said prices will rise with hidden fees. I’ve saved 7500 bucks since 2019. I ditched Comcast and went with a local fiber company. The sports and franchise fees with one cable box rental is almost the cost of YTTY. Cable tv shouldn’t be like a car payment.
Back then internet was 40 and CATV was 40 bucks for a total of 80 bucks, which I thought was too much even back then
@@RollerCoasterLineProductions So VERY true 👏👏
After watching this channel and reading the comments over the last few months, I honestly think it's no longer "cord cutting" as many many comments saying people have already moved on from cable. It seems now like this channel should rename itself "Streaming Survival News"
I refuse to give any money to the Millionaire/Billionaires in the sports world. I pay $20 for fiber 300/300. I pay NOTHING for anything else. If you search deeply you will be able to find ALL the entertainment media (for free) there is in the entire world.
I cut the cord 15 years ago for the antenna. Actually a hurricane knocked over my oak tree and broke my att uverse along with my phone line and I went and bought me an outside antenna and that was the beginning of FREEDOME. I then bought internet for $50/month with some over the air cell tower company that worked pretty good. Sprint then bought them out and cancelled the service. Too many people were great internet for cheap and they couldn’t stand it. lol I still don’t pay for anything else except internet.
@@davidlundy5007 👏👏🎯
Will also be one to drop Specturm. They are way overpriced for what you get. Paying $143 a month ($89,99 for Basic TV, $15.00 for the Entertainment Package, $7 for Sports View, $5 for the Movie Package, and $25.75 for Rebroadcast Fee for Local Stations.) No wonder they are losing customers in droves.
The rebroadcast fees is what killed cable companies
I'm cutting the cord matter of fact I'm going to take back the two boxes tomorrow. And that's for Comcast Xfinity whatever the name is now. I just can't afford the bills anymore.
Have a very nice time with your family.
Wishing you and your family lots of love happiness and many many blessings. 🌹❣️❤️
I wish sports programs where an add on option for Max and the others. Those of us with no interest in sports are paying for stuff we will never watch.
Luke...family comes first, keep up the great work you do. Enjoy your time off!! Tim
Thank you for all you do for us. Take care of you and your family. Hope all is well.
Comcrap Xfinity charges me 120 USD a month for iffy internet that rarely reaches anywhere near promised speed.
Just left spectrum for frontier fiber. Happy we did Frontier is amazing good.
I am a (smalltime) Netflix investor. I think this the right move. Eventually the pace at which you can add new users falls off. Reporting revenue & profitability is a much better inricator of the health of the business at this stage. I really liked how Netflix postitioned itself to be more resilient to all of the Hollywood strikes of '23 by having a good amount of foreign produced content.
Starlink is way more expensive than any of the other internet providers. The only folks who should go with Starlink are those who can't get anything better.
I have a question regarding Hoopla Digital. It's been a while since I've used the platform. It use to allow 12 "borrows" per month of any content, TV series, movies, e-books or audio books. They've cut that number in half to six, and the stopped me from borrowing for this month at 5 borrows. What happened?
Question: The Comcast $30 pre-paid internet sounds great but how is actually going to cost with the hidden fees?
What's interesting is that most of the streaming services aren't profitable yet. I wonder how many more years they can operate at a loss?
Thank you for your content! I was with Xfinity for 20+ years and pulled the plug on cable TV. I increased my internet to 1TB and signed up for CZcams TV. It's a learning curve but Xfinity bill was over $250 for cable & internet.
CZcams TV is just as expensive as cable
@@AV-sw7bj $53/month, DVR and not added fees. Xfin was $98, 10 DVR and any fee they could think of charging.
Question for Luke: do you see in the future the wireless providers buying the cable companies to extend the 5G network?
I couldn’t think of a more deserving company to die out than Spectrum! However, in a lot of areas (mine included) they are pretty much the only company that offers decent high speed internet and it’s dependable. We have dsl but it’s max speed is 2 mbps and in places 40 mbps. My residence is 4 mbps. T-Mobile is expanding here but their network is extremely congested here and they are adding more towers but it takes time. Verizon is adding more towers too. As soon as T-mobile starts to offer their home internet I will be changing to them.
we will have to see how this plays out but i do not expect canada will have as many options so the big isp's will still have their monopoly
I'll stay with Spectrum no data caps
Thank you for all the info. Enjoy the time with family. I subscribed. ( :
Cable has gotten expensive over the years.
Probably not at the rate streaming has.
@jameslarosa2396 CABLE COMPANIES PRICE BEEN INCREASING LITTLE BY LITTLE EVERY SINCE CABLE COMPANIES BEEN IN BUSINESS STREAMING HASNT BEEN AROUND THAT LONG
@@matthewgandy9774 It's like having a drug dealer...they give it up for free or a little in the beginning then get you hooked then pickpocket your money for the rest of your life.
QUESTION FOR LUKE.
Luke. Can you speculate on what cord cutting 3.0 might look like and when it might happen? Thank you in advance, Phillip.
I have not gotten any notifications from T-Mobile about slowing my service down.
Question for Luke: What is the best service for the elderly? My mom needs a dumbed down version where the live guide shows up by default or without a lot of button pushing.
That's the problem I have for my mom too. She can't figure out how to get what she wants to see.
Boomers are just plain lazy
Take all the time you need the family is very important.
1.5 TB isn't much data. AT&T was doing this years ago and we'd go over the limit with a family of 5 3 teens. Same thing days would slow down but wouldn't stop. If we went over 2 months in a row $50 added to next bill.
The new FIFA thing is the same Clubs World Cup but with new format😒 It would be extremely silly if it annul tournament 🤦♀️
Competition is good. Streaming costs will surely rise even more if cable companies die off.
Streaming gave non-sports viewers a welcome escape from cable bill surcharges which forced customers to subsidize sports teams & regional sports networks.
Leagues will try to get around that by pursuing deals with non-sports streamers (like Netflix).
Also: Years ago, pro & college leagues were seasonal & worked together to stay out of each other's way. Not anymore. They are now in direct competition - and in competition with endless online options.
i Hope Max wil add aew to there service that would be cool
Question for Luke: Why don't sports teams just use local channels instead of rsns since most paid streaming services don't carry them? I just wanna watch my sports.
Cable channels pay a lot of money
@@CordCuttersNews it's frustrating when you have to pay for multiple services to get sports! Ugh!
@@Gmen2487 It's expensive being a sports fan. I'm intrigued by this joint sports venture to stream the Disney, Fox and Warner sports channels in a package. Hopefully streaming will become more focused on the individual in the future rather than the expensive "everything but the kitchen sink" packages. Maybe RSNs find a place in there somewhere.
Take care of your family. Do your reports around it.
In my case i only want to see a few different teams sports. In order to watch ALL laker games i have to keep Spectrum. on streaming services i don't want to pay for alot of sports i won't ever watch. Besides the Lakers i'd want to see the Laker womens basketball too along with some UCLA sports and teams. Those are about all i watch. Personally i think dropping Spectrum would cost me more with streaming services and couldn't see what i really want to see. Plus i don't like the ads and the only one i pay for is prime video (#2.99) for no ads. Even if i added youtube plus or whatever it's called i'd be paying the same as Cable . Just my opinion
How good is Verizon internet
I next watch sports, I would rather play!!!
Your going have to pay something. At least now you have choices.
I wish all these streaming services and cable services would stop trying to slice up the same limited number of sports (football, basketball, baseball, soccer, hockey). Their obsession with those few drives up the price, and they abandon some of the other lesser known sports that had small but dedicated audiences. And in between the actual games they have an endless number of shows giving mindless banter commentary on match-ups, odds on games, match-ups, rivalries, etc. That's a bit 'Nope' from me.
Comcast and Spectrum don’t have their monopoly, so they. I longer enjoy the control over the customer. What will happen? Internet connection fees will go up to offset the money, or they decide to go competitive and offer a streaming service for anyone.
the problem with streaming TV is that nothing is in time, 2 TV's streaming the same football game are not in sync, It's at 2 different points in the game, I've been streaming for about 5 years now, the last 2 with fiber optics thru our telephone co, cable was better & I could watch sports on 3 TV's all playing the same exact thing at the same time, streaming not so much, OTA is a great picture quality but channels are limited, also streaming services are getting almost as expensive as cable, HULU is now $89 a month
That, problem is only a minor problem for me. I bet that over and as streaming apps improve and this annoying thing will go away. CZcams TV is supposed to be better on this issue, but I am Fubo subscriber
@@JohnPollack-em8xj maybe, but I doubt it actually seems to have gotten worse, plus you can't actually jump to a certain channel, you have to scroll thru or put in favorites & find it that way, like I said I've been streaming for over 5 years, I'm not impressed & it will be just as expensive as cable was soon for anything good
Luke, you deserve time off. I very much enjoy your videos, and I understandyou are a man with a family. I respect your desire to spend time and energy with your loved ones. Enjoy and peace.
I get Apple+ TV through my Verizon account.
All that means is your phone bill is higher.
I could care less about watching sports on tv.
Then get the services that don’t have sports. They are way cheaper.
Then you're one of the lucky ones. TV can be very inexpensive for you. Depending on what you like to watch, you could have a world of choices for the price of internet with an antenna for locals and free streamers such as Tubi and Pluto. If you like some of the cable channels there are services such as Philo with very low cost (like $25 a month) access to everything but sports and news. And even if you subscribed to the major pay streaming services it would be less than CZcams TV, much less cable.
Redtube is not an acceptable replacement.
So you care.
I kove sports, but all these leagues spreading themselves across so many different services is gonna backfire as people are already cutting down the number of paid services they have as prices go up, and the economy doesn't look like it's getting better anytime soon, despite the gaslighting the uniparty is trying to force feed us.
Yeah, that's the problem with all of this pom-pom waiving about cord cutting (in whatever variation it is in) killing cable TV. Don't get me wrong, I and many others have our gripes with past (and current) cable TV service and costs. But the sports content providers are not going to make it easy for serious sports fans.
Cable TV could survive if they just focused on 4k sports. Cable TV has very low picture quality. If they could remain one place for all sports with very high picture quality at a high frame rate. They will have to get rid of all the junk channels, history, disney, CNN, HSN, and many others.
I got involved with the lesser sports from the US and a lot of that is on CZcams. The world puts a lot of sports on there. I like some college sports so bigtenplus fills that need. I try to find cheaper options. For me, sports gives me the chance to turn my brain off and there's a lot out there for cheap. Avoid the capitalism as much as possible.
I love sports but I’m close to giving up because it’s getting too expensive.
@@davidaz6622 Once you pull off that band-aid, you will feel so much better 😎
It isn't cord cutting ... when you need need internet service (which requires a CORD).
To with 5g home Internet.
Your tv needs a cord too! 😛🤗🤨🤤🤤🤤
No not really, I have T-Mobile 5G Home Internet, base CZcams TV, CZcams Premium, & base Peacock along with OTA Antennas on all the TV's in my house, and no hardline service running to my house anymore. I get internet speeds in average of 400 Mbps(usually in the 500's) to well over 800 Mbps in off peak times with uploads high as 150 Mbps(usually 50 Mbps to 100 Mbps) with sub 24ms idle ping times with very little downtime, so my experience is really good, so if you have good coverage T-MO, and Verizon 5G are viable options if you don't need gigabit speeds(future 5G/6G connections are going to top 1Gbps on average).
@@CordCuttersNews ... can't make sense of what you said. "To with 5g home Internet."?
Yep. Just paid the last spectrum internet bill. It was $70.00 A month without $30.00 discount. They just can't offer a fixed fair permanent price.
What is a fair price?
