So, Cox has announced this. Will Suddenlink follow? I've never gotten a box for a couple of our TVs. I guess it will be nice to have all HD on those.

I thought analog was already phased out years ago

So they are catching up. Typical Cox.

Also, people getting cheap cable will now need a little digital box. Free for 12 months and then 2.99/month.

Yep, just like Cox.

Nope. Not giving them a monthly rental fee. They are giving me the final impetus to sever the cord.

I moved to acadiana area and I finally pulled the trigger on a Mohu Leaf (I just learned about these this week)

I have a subscriber login for ESPN but next year I'll probably get slingTV for ESPN/SECn.

I cut the cord 4 years ago as one of the early adopters and I've never looked back

I mostly cut the cord. I was told dropping all cable and phone would cause my internet to be more expensive than basic with phone and internet.

I already use Hulu, Prime and Netflix and I was planning on adding sling during football season. So I am just about there.
