personally in Estonia you’ve gotta pay for tv mostly
Haven’t watched ‘TV’ in over 15 years
TV? What’s that?
Everything through my laptop. Except for a shared Netflix account that costs me 5 bucks a month, and I only watch it on my phone.
TV? What’s that?
We all know Frankenstein is the doctor, not the monster.
How does it cost $5/month?
shared
Aha, thanks
We split the costs, as I said my part is 5. Because shared.
Makes perfect sense now. I think my brain had a moment
i dont watch television i more often stream or pirate.
Plex + HDHR = beautiful.
For everything else I just sail some seas.
Helps that I’m a lifetime plex member and have been for a long time now.
I’ve never had TV since I moved out from home.
No, I don’t

Neither at the moment, but cable is actually getting more appealing giving the constant splintering of streaming services.
I use neither.
In the United States here and I haven’t had non-streaming television since I moved out of my parent’s house.
Toyed with things like Sling and YouTube TV once, but they just aren’t worth it.
If I watch any shows or movies it is from a selfhosted Jellyfin server. No need for any subscriptions or cable TV.
Where I live, you get very little over air TV. In fact, I’m not sure there’s anything now.
We don’t pay for TV, but I have a little yo-ho-ho station, check out DVDs from the library, stream, or occasionally watch one of those free Pluto channels if I just want background noise

I had an antenna set up to see what I could get, and I can pick up affiliates from all the major networks, which is nice.
But it’s so full of commercials I can’t stand watching anything other than PBS so I took it down.
Yeah you really need something to record the TV then watch it later skipping the commercials in order for it to be useful.
I pay for cable, even pay extra for HBOs and 24/7 porn channel, tho this latter costs me $0.0028 per month so why not (it’s bad).
what cable package do you have?
well, I’m in Hungary and have Digi TV subscription (it’s a Romanian carrier that’s in service in my country as well)
around 4 years ago when I contracted with them it was super cheap. since then it’s almost 3 times more expensive. it’s a usual thing here that long-time subscribers pay more and more just for fun I guess?
My TV is used for F1 (via now TV - internet stream) and occasionaly YouTube and occasionaly video/games of my laptop.
If I did watch TV content it would likely be on iPlayer etc as I would never know when to watch things live
I use over-the-air supplemented by a few streaming services. After years of cable, it was startling how much better the picture and sound are with OTA. It used to be that cable was better quality, but they have compressed it down to the point where it is just barely acceptable.
