I get cable for free through my apartment complex. All I watch on it is sports though.

For everything else I watch Netflix or project free tv for HBO stuff. Sometimes I stream from the reddit links for movies. If a sports game is out of market I use stream2watch

This is one of my few serious posts (which my OP is not btw): My mom doesn't know how to use a computer, or what hbogo even is, and my dad is just clueless so I ended up managing the bills some of the time.

So based on this, the value of value-added services of TV Everywhere is lost on cable's targeted market.

i'm glad my mother wasn't a yuppie
My yuppie aunt was such a cunt to me when I told her off as an eight year old child. Which is p. much what Felt is based on. (Also look up ego states on the Felt aspect of personality) She put soap down my throat wtf and she thought I was the devil incarnate of the family. My cousin now has a DUI charge and is an alcoholic at the age of 20 so I feel kind of sad for her in a way. But not really, fuck her.

do you have unlimited data like normal ppl or do you use the anti-net neutrality binge on option

I don't know, whatever the default is. I don't stream video on my phone. 

I should word that differently, I pay for netflix and amazon prime. MLB.tv is free from T-Mobile and I can just sign in on my computer to watch games. But I don't even watch baseball and it's kind of pointless because it doesn't let you watch your local teams so it's like OH WOW I GET TO WATCH THE BRAVES VS THE ATHLETICS WOW

why can't we select multiple options
i pay for netflix, my sister's bf pays for hulu ad-free, and my sister pays for hbo, so we all use each other's accounts
also my fucking roommates chose the shittiest isp but they bundle fucking TIVO with it to jack the price up on an awful internet connection with a too-small data cap, so my gf and I pay 2/5ths of fucking premium satellite dvr bullshit that we use for maybe an hour a month tops to get live primary results coverage

good point
because people would select non sequitur options it's a force of habit on online polls
i should have had predefined combinations in the beginning to address that

torrent only but i guess i use my parent's netflix if it's on there already since that's easier
idk if i would pay for it myself though
