In Sweden we have to pay for TV through taxes. And then they use the money to make propaganda programs paid by the tax payers. Works well for keeping the population docile.
well, I’m in Hungary and have Digi TV subscription (it’s a Romanian carrier that’s in service in my country as well)
around 4 years ago when I contracted with them it was super cheap. since then it’s almost 3 times more expensive. it’s a usual thing here that long-time subscribers pay more and more just for fun I guess?
Not 100% true. A while back I bought a ton of dvds from a going out a business sale for like 10c each. I ripped them onto my server and stuck the dvd in storage.
I use over-the-air supplemented by a few streaming services. After years of cable, it was startling how much better the picture and sound are with OTA. It used to be that cable was better quality, but they have compressed it down to the point where it is just barely acceptable.
I have an OTA antenna but it’s really just there in case we need news and the internet is out. In the same we that there’s a crank radio in my emergency supplies. Everything else is Roku.
USA here. Where I live if you want to watch anything you have to pay for it or ride the high seas. OTA doesn’t work in rural communities, this signal is too weak from the big cities, and even in the city OTA can be questionable based on location.
