Curious if anyone else has jumped on the cord cutting band wagon? I've had an Antenna connected to my XBox One and honestly the picture is better than Spectrum was, I end up watching about the same amount of stations and its free. Curious what you guys use and how many channels you get.

I'm at 138 Channels in Riverside CA and use Netflix to stream, love it.

No antenna. Netflix and Amazon Video streaming only.

Have been cord free for about 6 years. Don't miss cable one bit.

You can use a program called Kodi to stream movies and tv shows. Imo, it's better than netflix and free. I put together a htpc and can stream almost anything.

They work for me until I watch everything and then I feel like its 2 or 3 months before they put anything new I want to watch :/

I've found so much good stuff that it's hard to keep up with all the shows.

How would I watch the new star trek without paying CBS ~$10/mo?

Depends on where you live. Try your address in receptionmaps.com it'll specify network like CBS . Doesn't mean it'll have the new star trek but it may if It does though it's free once you own the antenna

seems like the television programmers take three week vacations monthly. same episodes of each show broadcasted entire weekends, even from weekend to weekend
even shows like South Park which have two dozen seasons
it's weak stuff. imo it's a purposeful trell to get people out of their house and spending money, accumulating debt on credit cards
