Roku says *Showtime* is now available: 30 Day Free Trial
#7
Bimwad,

I am making that argument because there is truth to it. Cutting the cord and going with Internet access, streaming media boxes combined with over the air content and subscriptions to services like NetFlix, Amazon Prime, Hulu (Plus), CBS All Access, and others is still going to cost bucks. How much is dependent on the services to which he/she/they subscribe, if any.

That said, cutting the cord and going with over the air content only and/or cutting the cord and using streaming services isn't necessarily going to give people control over the content. Some, yes, but not nearly as much control as I think they'll get in reality.

Control only comes when you rent content from a streaming service or record a show from an over the air station (by whatever means he/she has at his/her disposal). Otherwise, the individual pays the monthly fee and enjoys whatever content is offered by the provider. Or, he/she watches what he/she can for free from an over the air station and hopes for the best.
