When we dumped DirectTV last year and signed up for Netflix I wasn't really sure how this would turn out.
That was more than six months ago and I'm here to tell you that it is working out better than expected.
I don't tend to watch a lot of television so I didn't anticipate problems. The ones that watch the most television are the ones I was concerned about. It turns out the kids actually like Netflix better than cable and in sixth months nobody in the house has ever asked for cable.
As we move forward in this new world Netflix has started to produce their own content and it is excellent. House of Cards is a terrific series and cable companies should be nervous. There is no reason to pay them $100 a month for what they give you.

The only thing I miss about cable is sports. Even with the basic package, I used to be able to watch North Carolina basketball once every week or two. I haven't seen a single game this season, and it's killing me.
Our family has been hulu/netflix exclusive for years. It was about 2011 when we bought a TV and a $400 PC for the living room.
If you walked into our home you'd never know we didn't have cable unless you saw us picking shows with the wireless keyboard.
Chromecast is intriguing to me. It may be the ticket to getting that pc out of there.
