<prompt> Human: Weve been with Time Warner, now Spectrum for over 15 years. When Spectrum took over last year I did my annual review to make sure I was on the best promotion and they found we were best off staying on a Time Warner plan. Now, 12 months later and our bill got its annual increase, 20 extra for no change in service. Multiple customer service agents were unable to do any better than that price now 162 for 505 internet, cable with 1 DVR, and a home phone we never even took out of the box. Threatening to cut TV does nothing with this company. My wife has been hesitant to cut the cord because we live in an area where we cant receive local channels OTA, and none of the streaming providers offer them either. Still, doing the math, we were being offered internet only at 65month, and the Sling Blue package gives us everything we want except local channels for 25month. So yesterday we finally agreed to cut the cord, saving us 864year, AND our internet got bumped to 10010. So far Sling seems great to me. I hated using the archaic cable box and remote interface - Sling seems much more in line with what modern TV should look like. I was surprised at how hesitant I was to do this in the first place, but how FREEING it feels now. Heading down to turn in the phone and cable box shortly!  <response>: Having been a cord cutter for 2 years I can honestly say I would never go back to getting cable. Aside from it being overpriced, morally I cannot support the likes of Comcast for their hundreds of reasons of bad company practice.As others have pointed out, there are many choices in terms of what channels cater to your liking. I have Netflix and have an HD antenna for Jeopardy and the local news and I couldnt be happier. Plus it gives me more time to do stuff around the house and also read.Best of luck!
