We switched to Netflix soon thereafter, but now even Netflix isn't delivering the type of programming I like. I prefer good quality documentaries and non-fiction programming. I'm especially fond of BBC and PBS programs stuck up on Youtube (probably without the content owner's consent). If it wasn't for my wife who likes a lot of the fiction programming on Netflix, I'd cancel it and use Youtube exclusively.
One hour programs intended to be shown with ads have a 38-44 min. run time. The programs on BBC have a 55-59 minute run time, and those on PBS have a 51-55 minute run time. More material can be covered in the longer run times.
Also, you don't have Advertisers dictating what types of documentaries to produce (e.g. UFO/Alien abduction, psychic, ghosts, political, etc.) Apparently programming with borderline non-truths attract more viewers who spend money on the advertisers products than real factual programming.
We get ABC, CBS, NBC, Fox, PBS and CW and several Spanish stations if we spoke that language.
We miss Fox News and CNN but catch their clips on Roku or on the web.
For movies, Netflix, M-GO and Google Play.
We may buy some sort of DVR, not sure yet.

Love Fox News but they also did not broadcast the debates on TV either recently and my wife is sure they are reducing the clips on Roku. Fox need to get their act together and stop being so greedy.
