$65 for internet



If you're going to include $65 for internet, why not include electricity to power the TV, monthly food costs to keep you alive while you watch entertainment, the water bill for staying hydrated, and the natural gas to keep you warm while you watch?

Or would you really not have had internet already anyway??

Because comparing internet and tv for 150 from ATT does not include these things either...

my cable bill for tv is over 125- and with premium channels it would be over 150- that is what I eliminate

I also have internet- which is an additional charge on top of the 150 so claiming the internet expense is not a correct comparison

Who said that the $150 included the internet?

I had Cox with Premier tier internet, basic cable, sports package added, with no DVR or boxes rented, and my bill came out to about $185/month. Add the box that I paid TiVo monthly fees on (which would roughly cost the same as renting a box from Cox) and you're looking at about $200/month.

The internet portion of that is $75, so take that out and you're at around $125.

Compare that to Sling ($20) + Sports package ($5) + Netflix ($8) + Hulu Plus ($8) + Amazon Prime (roughly $8) = about $50/month.
