Yeah, I only have netflix because I don't have prime, and my blu ray player was set up to receive netflix without buying another device. At $8 per month and one month free, I was willing to dive in. I have plenty of frugal friends and a brother that have gone netflix only for years.
The problem I always had with cancelling cable, is our lack of free channels. Even though I live only 20 miles South of a mid size City, we only get 3 channels free with an antennae. So everytime I tried to cancel, I realized how awful network TV actually is. Since I have signed up for the very frugal friendly netflix, I am now realizing how much it's suited for me. I LOVE DOCUMENTARIES, especially history ones, so netflix is like my own personal library, and when my wife comes home from being out of town, we'll start to watch House of Cards together, which I hear is awesome.
