FETV

If any service, streaming or Traditional, adds any channels, it will increase the monthly bill even more then the almost every year increase.

Then, the majority of channels not on any service (and the majority of channels already on a service), the content is majority reruns.

That content is already available free via services like Pluto TV, both of that content live and on demand.

You have options now, if not happy with the pricing, leave.

But you are correct, there is less and less new content on Broadcast and Cable Channels, because we are in a Transitional stage regarding how we receive Home Entertainment.

But it has always changed, we went from Antennaa to Cable to Satellite to Streaming.

From only watching it live and reruns to tapes to DVRs.

From Tapes to Laser Discs to DVDs to Blu-Rays to 4K Discs to streaming.

If you cannot accept change, go back to the world of Antennas, then you really will be complaining about content.


Again, if unhappy leave, that is the only why corporations notice, when it affects the bottom line.

But I really doubt Cable/Satellite Providers understand the change going on right now, they seem to be doing the same thing every year, raise the price, less options, doing that for as long as I remember.

Most people I know dropped Dish and DirecTV due to their pricing. The average person around here was spending between $130 AND $180.00 a month.

I haven't had either since I stopped installing them. I saw the writing on the wall and started buying DVD's. I have an extensive collection of old classics and rarely turn on my satellite system.

Unless it's Gunsmoke or something like that, I have zero interest in anything on TV. Their woke agenda has zero interest at this house. I keep adding to my collection all the time.

I'm not going to be forced to watch the garbage on TV today, and I am not going to pay $180 a month for streaming or broadcast television when they're only about 10 channels that even interest me.

I did like FETV due to the westerns, and I guess it's no longer available on FTA, or at least I haven't been about to locate it. It doesn't matter. I have most of the westerns they carried on DVD.

Depending on where you live, there's two OTA western channels that are 24/7 westerns. OUTLAW and GRIT
