Default Cut the cord (Dish)

They finally got me mad enough to kill them and I am Dishless.
The box went down on Saturday (4/26). In spite of paying for the on
site service contract they still shipped me another box that didn't
here until Thursday. I never opened the box. It took 4 phone calls and
a lot of listening to music to finally get them to cancel my account
but I am outta there. I am going to live with OTA and streaming. I
will get my HBO and Show from Amazon, that we already have and we
already have Netflix. My bill will be going down about $80 a month
after I buy HBO/Show.
At least Harry won't be able to accuse me of watching too much Fox
News ;-)
I really wasn't watching much "cable" at all, hence the change.
The only thing I have really missed so far is the outdoor channel and
I am looking for a path. I am sure sportsman and OCH has a deal with
someone. It is really refreshing not watching ad based TV.
