I am about ready to discontinue services for a bundled system of basic cable TV, internet and landline telephone, it costs over 100 bucks a month for it all, and one of these days I will call them and cancel all of it, i have a cellphone if i need to make a call, i will still have a computer to do miscellaneous tasks like personal accounting/book keeping, listen to music & video, photo editing & etc... i do have a laptop i can take to town if i need the internet for a few minutes for something but my dependence on the internet is minimal, it is more of a leisure time luxury that i can live without if i must. all i need is just another annoyance like a price hike or a tax on top of what i have to pay for now and BAM! and wave buh bye to all of it as a kick it all to the curb
