A recent piece of news captures (finally) the truth about the feeling everyone has about their cable serif. It is overpriced and there is never anything on when one finally has the time to sit down in front of the TV.

Cable Lost 500,000 subscribers in a single quarter

In a related piece, one of the Internet research firms, published a report that states that Netflix is the site that consumes the most Internet bandwidth. (Here)

In the United States, Netflix represents more than 20 percent of downstream traffic during peak times and is heaviest between 8-10 p.m. (Link)

We are home, have not cut the cable, but we have been talking about for a while, as most of our watching is done via Netflix, Hulu, Youtube, and other sites.

I love the fact that we are not alone in this trend.
