I'm sorry for your loss. I'm currently in the same boat as you were. By the time I add in the full suite of Discovery and Travel Channel variants plus the ease of DVR use, cutting the cord is no trivial matter. Might save $20 or so a month.Cutting the cord as of last night. Since Mrs Scrapr passed it really makes even less sense to pay $187/mo. She liked several cooking channels and would DVR daytime talk shows. I wasn't willing to die on that hill to make a change.
If the cost difference w/Internet were $50 or more a month, I might push it. But it's not for my wife, and life is too short to be dealing with this small amount of recurring expenses. I guess for some people it is.
