I haven't seen any live-tv for 30yrs now, I'm baffled they still exist somehow?
On the rare occasion I see live TV, the commercials are a new level of terrible now.
I can imagine...and I really really despise commercials or ads. They all try to take you for some dumb troglodyte. I long switched to piracy for movies and series. Enter name, wait 1-2 minutes, watch in 4k with no ads but in peace.
They don’t even try to be entertaining now. Always some bold statement about the proud American tradition read by someone with a gruff voice and it’s a fucking dog food commercial or something
Drugs, lawyers, and AI videos.
Having tv I don’t watch lowers my internet bill by like $20 a month.
Same. Never watch it but they insist and give us a deal (and then we have to call and threaten to cancel every few months when they try to take the deal away lol)
Lol. My bill is fixed so that wouldn't change anything. But our TV can only do jellyfin 😁
