Entry 617: Cutting The Cord

Recently we had a big hail storm and it was bad enough that we were able to get a new roof.  When Lance was talking to the roof guy he asked if we wanted to have our dish put back on the roof.  We had been talking for quite some time about getting rid of cable and after we figured this was the perfect time because we didn't want a dish on our roof anymore.  The other problem with the dish was that anytime the weather was bad, our signal would go out.  We narrowed our choices down to YouTube TV and Hulu.  Lance was rooting for YouTube TV because he liked the navigation better, but Julie wanted Hulu because it had A&E which had some of her favorite shows.  In the end Hulu won out, but the problem was that Julie enjoys her Hallmark Channel and neither of these services had this.  We solved this problem by subscribing to the Hallmark Now app and installing it on the TV's.  This basically has every Hallmark movie ever made and is pretty cheap.  All in all right now we are loving it and it is saving us quite a bit of money.  Just one more step in our house renovation.
