How do you think cable companies feel about streaming/free TV? [I Love Internet]

So basically you have things like the Roku TV, and free streaming TV stations, like Pluto TV, and the Roku channel, and all other kinds of free content. I know, "nothing is free"

When I say "free content", what I'm trying to say, is that I don't pay $230 a month for cable TV. I pay $100.95 a month for a cable internet service. And no phone service. Internet only.

I bet the cable companies hate it that people are moving away from overly expensive cable and going to streaming TV instead.

Now, there is a problem with streaming TV. If your internet service goes out, kiss all those free channels goodbye. However, if you have an antenna, you can watch live TV. With my antenna, I get like 15 local channels, and that's more than enough for me. I don't watch much TV anyway, I'm usually doing everything here on the computer.

In any event, I'm still tied to the cable company with the internet service, but, I'm not wasting money on a cable bill, and I bet they hate that fact.
