Question for Cord Cutting Gurus

Live in NOVAsux and getting ready to cut the cord, I think. Verizon just jacked up the price another $10/month.

I already have Neflix and Amazon, plus a Roku. Going to add Sling for the channels I'd be missing, which just leaves basic sports, since we don't watch local news.

Saw in previous posts, where some kept FIOS for local channels. Why? Sling has NBC, Fox, Comcast SportsNet. And ABC and CBS both stream live, right? Am I missing anything?

Also, anybody notice a big difference going from FIOS 50/50 to 100/100?

I use an antenna for local and it works well -- Casey 06/30/2016 4:54PM

What needs to be focused on are regional sports -- MEHOKIE 06/30/2016 2:51PM

Get an antenna and look at playstation vue vs sling for other channels ** -- HokieJamie 06/30/2016 2:08PM

You don't have a subscription for the networks do you? -- Hokie Bird 94 06/30/2016 2:01PM

I suggest an antenna for locals -- VTSnake 06/30/2016 1:59PM

Definitely go antennas to each TV -- Newt 06/30/2016 4:12PM

I used an external antenna on the roof with an in-line amplifier and tied -- Hokie5150 06/30/2016 5:48PM

That would work well. -- Newt 06/30/2016 6:28PM

Yep, $40 (or less) for a good digital antenna and you are good to go ** -- hoosnowahokie 06/30/2016 2:00PM
