I've said it before and this article pretty much backs up what my thoughts are on the situation:

People seem to be of the mindset that dropping cable and switching to streaming services will save them money. That may be somewhat true for the moment, but at some point your cable provider, who is most likely also your ISP, will start charging you more for your internet service to compensate for any loss in revenue from dwindling cable subscriptions. Let's face it, they're going to get you one way or another.
My premise is that the term "cord cutting" is completely false and misleading. While you may be dropping your cable TV service, you're probably still connected to your cable company for TV via the internet. A true cord cutter will have no internet and will rely only on an antenna as their TV provider, just like the old days. I suppose the term "cord cutting" would be more applicable if you only received TV programming via your wireless service and not from a hard line feed into your home.
