Other than that, it's hard for me to understand the need to pay for basic cable or satellite plan, when most of its content is public channels that one can get free on either OTA antenna or on internet. People in the US are spoiled :), there are more free or very cheap web streaming TV plans, and more OTA channels too.
Unfortunately there are not many (any) CANADIAN channels available in USA. While I'm not a great fan of hockey, I've compared commentary between American and Canadian broadcasts of the same game and it's like you're watching a different game. For a Canuck like me, I need my satellite TV.
