I can't believe people still watch TV.

Yup, my mom is trying to cut down on some bills but guess the one thing they can't bring themselves to cut because they can't imagine using anything else to watch their shows?

True, I can understand if people are elderly, sorry for assuming that if it's not the case. But it seems like this promo is for a platform for streamed "cable TV". In that case, people might as well just have streamed individual shows or movies if they don't know how to torrent.

Not elderly, but god damn do they act like it sometimes.

I think live sports is really the only reason most people pay for TV anymore. The rest of the content is available online on one of the 3,000 streaming platforms.

That's a solid point.
