Re: Taxes and fees
At $25/mo for broadcast channels, you could buy a Rohn 25 tower section every 3 months and within a year or two, have enough to set up a tower with a high-gain receiver antenna on it.
I cut the cord when DTV came out and have an antenna in my attic (no weather issues). It works pretty well, as I'm lucky to be on a hilltop with line of sight to the broadcast antennas.
Bought my own cable modem when the rental charge went over $10/mo. I'm still paying close to $80/mo for 80/6 internet. They claim it's "up to 100", and I have seen it that high, but it's fast enough for me.
We need ISPs to be regulated as common carriers here in the US, but as long as Pai and the lobbyists is in charge, that won't happen.
