How to become cable independent?
Really there is no way to become "cable independent" in terms of internet access unless you are fortunate enough to live in a city with fiber optic access; DSL over phone lines sucks and is not a viable option for me. But yes, if you have fast internet access, there are plenty of good alternatives to cable television as long as you don't mind watching stuff delayed which I prefer to avoid commercials.

Did this about a month ago. We bought a Roku and the Leaf antenna from Amazon. Pay $7.99 for Hulu Plus(carries most of the shows we watch), we get Amazon Prime anyway, so access to their instant videos for free, free Netflix and HBOgo...pay Cox about $50 for Internet. Bill went from $200 a month to $58. Haven't missed cable yet and I'm up to date on all of my shows.
