    Now that football over think I may cut the cord. $70 a month for TV I never watch is a waste. I already have antenna setup which gets 25 channels for free and all the networks. I have NBA league pass which supposedly now let's you watch national games too a few hours later when they're archived.

    With 4K, streaming isn’t just a cable-cutting measure anymore. It’s the primary delivery mechanism, and that could change the entire nature of television—not just how we (binge-)watch it, but how we decide which company’s 4K set to buy. You see, you can’t buy a 4K-capable Roku, Amazon Fire TV, or Apple TV box right now. Yes, you can watch upscaled 1080p content, and that’ll look great. But if you want a true 4K experience—tack-sharp detail and you-are-there realism—you’re largely limited to the 4K services offered by each TV’s built-in smart platform.
