I'll never go back to cable or Satellite.......especially now that YouTubeTV has the NFL package.

When I first signed up to YTTV, I wanted the ESPN sports channels to watch college basketball and MNF.
I didn't want to mess around with illegal streams.
YT had that plus the local over the air channels and it cost $35 a month.
Now I have dozens and dozens of more channels I never watch, the costs has more than doubled to $75 or whatever it is...
And it doesn't even freaking have all the Kansas BB games because ESPN+ is a separate subscription.
It is certainly a scam compared to $35 I was paying even with some inflation.
And I know have a better TV, but if I want the 4K option, here is an option to stiff you again.
No, my $35 option didn't have 4K but the general nature of technology improvement is you pay about the same price for something and get more capabilities. I'm not buying $10,000 laptops or paying $400 for broadband compared to ten years ago.
But when there is a lack of real competition...
