Jim...I have been thinking about doing something like that as well.

We have good OTA reception in the area, so I thought about getting a TiVo since a DVR is a must and pay the $12/mo TiVo fee.

I have Netflix, and have been trying Hulu+....so plenty of content there.

What I end up missing is the cable sports channels, ESPN being the biggest, and the local sports stuff...Lakers, Dodgers, UCLA, etc. Those are the ones that are hard to give up.
