I'm so out of touch I don't even know what a firestick is.

Lol Im just seeing this post now,A firestick is a device you install in your tv so you can stream different tv shows,and movies from various streaming sites such as netflix.

I just got into free streaming tv this last year. I only pay for a decent enough cable internet feed 50mbps.
I haven't had cable since 2002 and don't miss all the infomercials on 90% of the channels after 1am when I can't sleep sometimes.

I just got rid rid of my tv and got a DVD rom to play DVD's on my Laptop.

We have it, but the most super basic package you can get. I personally don't watch it. With streaming/On Demand services, it's more worth the money so you can avoid ads and watch what you want. I've also recently just stopped watching TV shows and movies because all I see is propaganda. I prefer watching things that are going to teach me something or give me perspective/insight on current events.

The amount of streaming services is out of control:
Disney+
Peacock
ESPN+
Discovery+
HBO Max
Prime
Netflix
Hulu
Paramount+

Even more

Everything will be streamed online.... even movie theaters will possibly start to stream content instead of getting films delivered by hand they will only be a large screen and sound system to whoever wants to sell them content.

No I don't watch Cable TV

 

[Christian Bowler]

I agree the list of streaming services is crazy.

 

[Christian Bowler]

Just because I can afford to stream music and videos does not mean I have to.

I agree. I stream stuff because I've pretty much got very few things I watch on OTA local TV programs I want to watch are only on certain times while streaming you can binge and watch a series episode after another 24 hours a day and there is movies. I don't stream music because I have plenty of it to listen to.

 

[Christian Bowler]

Yes, I have a collection of over 30 CD's which I find that I don't have the time during the day to listen to all of them. So in short, I really don't have the time to have millions of songs to listen to on a streaming service.

I have about 400 CDs ripped to MP3s on my computer and phone about 8500 songs. I rate them and set my playlists to only include my more favorite songs and genres. The one drawback with streaming is commercials and not being able to play a song on demand easily plus needing internet availability as I've been out of range of cell towers before.

I still have a 2gb iPod that I have to be very limited on what I put on it.

I totally agree. I watch tv for educational purposes and also watch a movie from time to time.

I don’t have any streaming services of any kind and watch DVD’s only. I find life is much more simpler that way.
