(4,258 posts)14. Hahah I did that too
But then sucked it up and ordered it anyway. I had TMobile 5G just before, and it was blazing fast, but they limit you to 100GB of 5G data. I was running close to that limit each month, so I paid for a second AT&T 4G LTE doodad that gave me another 100GB of data. That was more than 200/mo just to support WFH and streaming.
If a decent human being or company ever offers an alternative satellite service I’ll snap it up.

Live TV is an option, and, in pseudo-DVR fashion, you can "record" live shows to watch later

No cable, no satellite, no broadcast, two or three ad free streaming services, and DVDs.
