Debated killing cable and just using Netflix and Buying HBO App For $14.99 but then internet price jumps up since not double play package so still some savings just not huge savings since I lose the bundle pricing. I already pay crazy Chicago taxes on cable bill and a .90 cent Netflix tax.
Sling has something like a la carte. You pay $20 and get some base channels then you buy the channels you want for more. They do small package deals so it's something like $5 for a sports package or another $5 for kids channels etc.

In a perfect world, you could just pay a couple bucks per channel and get the handful you actually watch and nothing else. The reality is many of these cable channels wouldn't survive without the money they get from the cable companies for just being on the service.
