Do you have Cable?

Not TV and no cable. Of course, all I ever watch is Jeopardy, hockey and NCAA basketball and I go to the pub to watch those.

I got rid of cable about 3 1/2 years ago. Don't miss it a bit.

The guy who lived in this apartment before me left his TV behind. I don't think I've even turned it on since I moved in. I'm not even remotely interested.

So no, no cable for me!

I have thought about getting satellite TV just so I could watch broadcasts from Europe and Latin America, but so far the cost doesn't seem worth it.

It is so not worth the money. I think it would be if you could go al-a-carte style with your channels. Netflix has most TV shows, though you have to wait a while after they are on TV to watch them.

A lot of cable companies in Canada offer a la carte channels, both individually and bundles.

I'd have no problem having just netflix if they'd start showing hgtv stuff.

We have DirecTV, basically so we can have Universal Sports (Olympic sports like figure skating) and Fox News.

I can scroll through Netflix for hours, often finding nothing worth watching. And it takes forever for them to add a season of a show. I have a bit more luck with Hulu plus.

Also, is there some way to filter Netflix so you don't see raunchy covers? I've never had my own account -- only played with a friend's.

I think Netflix is great. I have more things on my instant queue than I have time to watch.
