Yep. No more subscription TV in my house. Apple TV/on-demand only.
You won't miss it. Cable/Satellite is a rip-off. I measured 40% of total time spent viewing as commercials (not including "product placement" in the main program). Even with Tivo/DVR it's annoying to fast-forward through, and 99.9% of the programming out there sucks anyway.
Seriously - this is a no-brainer. Why pay good money to programs that do nothing for you and/or you'll never watch.
You can find F1 videos online. The only thing you can't get that I've found is live sports broadcasting, and if I really wanted that, I could get a subscription to NFL or MLB's own online streaming network (over the computer). But IMHO it's not worth it.
Get more done, learn more, read more books. Win-win-win.
