    Exactly. I was trying to be conservative by choosing only 6 and sticking to the cheaper plans.

    But it is entirely conceivable today that, if someone has literally all the subscriptions, they could be paying more than cable costs.

    Another factor I ignored for brevity is, at least when I was a kid, the price of cable was often bundled with Internet and telephone services. I can’t speak to how accurate the numbers would be, but I’m pretty sure my dad was paying $100+ for cable and everything else, meaning the cable likely wasn’t the entire cost of the bill. But I digress…

    Streaming has gotten out of hand, and anyone who disagrees with me today will eventually agree within a decade.
