About 5 or 6 for me, but only because the package with TV was cheaper than internet only. Didn’t actually use the TV service, but saved about $40/month and got free HBO with that package (which I just used the app for since it was HD there and only SD service for the TV subscription, that’s how they expected to make money with that package I think - HD was an upgrade).
Ten here, for the same reason. It was weird calling tech support when my internet went down and they’d say ‘Does your television still work?’ Bitch, I dunno, it’s not even connected to anything, I use streaming.
The funniest was when satellite television companies showed up at my door to pitch me, obviously based on lists of competitors’ customers they’d purchased. ‘We’re x dollars cheaper with less downtime.’ ‘Okay, but I don’t use the cable service, just the internet and I stream everything.’ ‘Oh… uh we’ll give you DVR for free.’ Bitch, do you know what streaming is? I don’t have to manage recording and saving shit that still has advertisements. Your model is dead, stop trying to sell me its corpse.
