Effy.....I think your theory of streaming is here now is seriously flawed. First, you proved your theory of satellite not being the way to go is flawed because you can't find a better alternative!
Second, streaming only offers a limited amount of programs, where many of us want to watch a show when it first airs on Thursday or Friday.
Third, many of us aren't camping under a cell tower on the east coast and most of the places we go, you get limited service and satellite is the way to go. '
Lastly anyone who tries to respond to your statement is corrected by you as wrong. So I guess this is a wasted post if you already have the answer. If you don't have the answer.....it is....streaming is STILL TOO EXPENSIVE and probably will be long after a new satellite is obsolete.
