I cut cable in 2003, restarted in 2007, cut again in late 2008.. but I fit that profile. Between Hulu and Netflix, I'm covered for everything except live sports. And since I'm not a sports guy and only watch with friends, I meet them at a bar.
Problem solved, $50+/month saved.
And when I cut the cable the last time, I asked them how much it'd cost to deactivate my cable modem. They immediately gave me a 33% discount.
I didn't think the gender divide would be so big (after all, nearly half the tech podcasts I follow are hosted by women), but of the first 12,000 people to take the Firefox Test Pilot survey, 97% identified as male!
