"Less than half" is shockingly higher than I thought it would be. Who still watches broadcast TV?
People into sports often seem to.
And people who love watching the news channels. IDK if those exist in the UK, I'm talking about the US.
And those kids are only watching it, probably due to the parent who can't deal with change, so it's in the house already. My wife is that person! 4 years ago, I convinced her to go to Hulu live instead of cable, but now that's pretty close to the price when I switched, so I finally convinced her to give it up completely. I am paying for 1 year of hulu next month, which is less than 1 month of hulu live, and deal with it.
She watches news and sports, but the news is easy. I found a few legit apps that offer up local news and even the prime-time stuff in real time. Sports will be harder, but she's not that into it, and as long as we know what we want to watch, I can probably find something in advance.
