Basic cable in my area is really just all the free over the air broadcast channels but with a reliable connection. Cable with all the channels you would expect (VH1, MTV, ESPN, Disney, etc) is $100 and HBO is still extra on top of that.

You should compare quality and bitrate with an OTA antenna. We switched to an antenna and the quality is WAY better! There’s an insane amount of compression happening on the coaxial cable TV feed.
