With pay TV prices skyrocketing, a lot of people are looking to cut the cord. For some, however, it’s hard to imagine life without TV. Of course, in today’s world, you don’t have to go without. There are plenty of ways to get a cheap or even free TV fix.
Recently, Comcast announced plans to launch Stream, a new service that will deliver live TV from a dozen different networks—for $15 a month.
Stream won’t require a tech visit, added equipment or even a TV. Instead, the service is exactly what it sounds like; it will allow subscribers to stream content to laptops, tablets and phones. The newly announced service will also include access to TV Everywhere and a cloud DVR, so you can even record shows for viewing on your own time.

Comcast is expecting to launch Stream in Boston by the end of the summer, with plans to make it available everywhere by early 2016.
Will this type of service help you to finally cut the cord? If you don’t want to wait (or deal with Comcast), there are plenty of ways to get a cheap or even free TV fix.
Netflix
This one seems like a no-brainer. The popular service is almost everywhere, boasting streams up to 1080p with 7.1 surround sound (when available). In fact, the company can even stream 4K for an added fee. It’s hard to imagine that most cord cutters would care about 4K, but it’s nice to have options. Another thing that’s an option: a lot of content. There are tons of familiar movies and TV shows, but also a lot of original content—and it’s good stuff, such as House of Cards and Orange is the New Black. The programming and availability make Netflix one of the most popular streaming services out there today. Recently, there have been rumblings that the price will increase, but if they keep cranking out quality original programming, it should be worth it. However, at last peek, a month’s worth of streaming service was still priced at $7.99.
