Btw...I'm pretty sure 'masses' is not cord cutters yet. The Masses still have cable and satellite.
As a cord "never-er" this is mind boggling to me

It really comes down to your choices for broadband. Where I live we have only one choice for broadband...and its comcast and its not real cheap.

I only did that one year for NFL since that is the only version you can get that should work; but I found I get more than enough games the way it is, I could not justify that cost anymore. Regular domestic MLB and NHL work just fine with DNS blocking.

What is fascinating to me in broadband is the lack of competition. I have the same issue. costs me $45/mo for lowest Midco speed. My only other option is DSL, and they are offering the same price at lower speeds. Can't figure out Centurylink logic!
Re: Watch ESPN/ ESPN + streaming
Espn3 worked for me last night. Not sure how much longer.
Hulu always buffered for me so I switched to Direct TV Now. Rarely buffers.

right. My point was its just easier for people to bundle which is why they choose cable. We have century link too but DSL is junk...at least in the cities and they are advertising fiber now but its more expensive than the broadband. The competition is all about the infrastructure i think.
Re: Watch ESPN/ ESPN + streaming
Speaking of Midco's different speeds, how much can you run on that lowest speed? Like how many TV's and devices at once without buffering? I currently have Midco 75 and we can run two TV's and multiple devices at once without missing a beat. I don't think we've even come close to hitting the limit where we would get buffering issues.
In a nutshell, how low can I go?
ETA: I did check out the cord cutting thread. It was huge but the last posts were from the fall.

But per your last post you stated don't have a subscription to either?

Correct, but it should still work on roku, etc. (Note, working on Android is tough due to tracking of phone location.......) I decided it made more sense to go for Sling TV Orange and Blue for $40/mo since the extra $20/mo is about what I was paying for MLB and NHL plus opens up a few more cable channels for me. Bundling like the teach!
