I love my cable TV. Also have the internet and phone package. Tons and
tons of channels and all types of HD entertainment. I can watch different
advertising-free movies every night. Torn down the external TV antenna
years ago. Tried satellite on a 2 month promo several years ago;
reception at times was good; sometimes bad, and sometimes in-between. Got
rid of it. My cable TV reception has always been great.
