I am tired of being ripped off by these sat TV operators.
What is available thru WiFi that doesn't require me to pay for 200 channels I never watch?
If someone came up with an "ala carte" TV broadcast menu, say 25-50 channels you choose, I bet they would clean up.

No TV. Shut off the JewTube. It poisons your mind and makes your kids want to imitate niggers.

Start with what you can get free over-the-air. I get about 30 or so channels with a medium size roof antenna. You can find a lot of individual shows on Youtube, and Netflix has a a ton of stuff but be careful because if you start subscribing to pay services the $8 and $10 or more monthly fees add up.

Yes, YouTube app thru XBox is an excellent alternative. You can find all kinds of shit with a little searching. All free!

This. Also don't subscribe to anything, find where the stuff is posted in forums blogs etc. for free. Live stuff is streamed for free too, just look for it.
All you pay for is internet

Netflix is fucking garbage. A bunch of bad movies you've never heard of. The old TV shows are ok if that's what you're into.

I have Direc TV only because of NFL sunday ticket. When they tried to double my bill after the first year I called them and asked them what I needed to do to cancel on my two year agreement. All of a sudden they came up with a deal that was actually 9 bucks less per month than the 1 year "promotional" rate I had been paying. They are losing market share every day and are desperate to keep subscribers.
