Finally? It's cost more than cable in my area for some time now. I gave up on pirating almost completely when it was just Netflix and Hulu. Now every single network has their own streaming service and they all charge a premium.... sorry guys, back to flying the Jolly Roger for me.

Yeah I did that four years ago, and I've never been happier. More time to exist, and the shows we watch are ones we want to watch because there is no brainless surfing.
