I'm getting a little fed up with both Satellite and Cable. Typically in the past I would alternate back and forth between the two so that the companies would offer me some discounts to convince me to switch. But after a set amount of time, they would slowly increase the fee every month. I have 2 months left on DirecTV and they have nearly doubled my fees by nickel and diming me to death.

How many of you guys are off cable and satellite and going solely through IPTV? Is it a viable replacement for satellite and cable? I figured a good alternative would be a combination of:

  • Over-the-Air (OTA) HD antenna for local channels
  • Netflix
  • Hulu Plus
  • Boxee?


Has anyone here done something like this?
