Streaming Services Should Be a Part of Pay TV

Description

The rapid growth of streaming services like Netflix, Hulu and Amazon has created a two-tier system of content. It’s also created a two-tier system in our living rooms, where traditional cable and broadcast channels are accessed via a set-top box while streaming channels are accessed via a Roku box. That’s unfortunate, because integrating the two competing systems into a single interface may be exactly what the industry needs to survive. Creating an elegant interface that combines streaming services and pay-TV services, so that Netflix and NBC both live on the same grid, would go a long way towards improving TV’s user experience. It would also benefit all parties, from networks and MVPDs to streaming services. But most of all, it would benefit the consumer.

Cord Cutters Get Nasty Sticker Shock From Hulu Price Hike

In a bid to save their hard-earned money, millions of Americans have 'cut the cord' and switched to streaming services. But according to Business Insider, that might not be working out so well anymore. Hulu told its 36 million subscribers Monday that it's increasing the price for its live television bundle by $10 a month. Hulu + Live TV with ads will cost $64.99 per month--the same as YouTube TV. Hulu's service without ads will cost $70.99 a month starting December 18. The hike has generated backlash among customers, who expressed frustration that their decision to cut the cord was becoming more and more expensive.

Get Out The Rabbit Ears, Because It's Time To Think About Cutting The Cord

Trying to cut the fat from the household budget is nothing new, and one strategy is to 'cut the cord' by getting rid of cable TV. But unless you can get your TV from a roof antenna, you'll have to have cheap, fast internet to stream your programs. According to TechNewsWorld.com, cutting the cable TV cord is a mixed bag for most people. You'll probably just lower your TV bill by streaming, rather than saving a ton of money. On the other hand, you can bounce from free trials to low-cost offerings to find the ideal solution. Most streaming services don't require contracts, so you can explore different options depending on your viewing habits and your family's needs.

What Matters Most In Deciding Whether To Pay Off Your Mortgage Early

Especially in uncertain times like these, the dream of owning one's home free and clear is an enticing one. On the other hand, isn't saving for retirement, or college funds more important? According to Business Insider, if you have the opportunity to pay off your mortgage early, the deciding factor comes down to just one thing: interest rates. If the rate on your mortgage is higher than the rate you'd earn by investing cash in the stock market, pay down the debt first. But before you do that, run the numbers to see if refinancing your mortgage would make sense. If so, you can apply the freed-up cash towards your high-interest debt. Once that's cleared up, pay off the mortgage!
