    Good stuff Merlyn! I’m afraid I am too old to get rid of my TV, altho the price of bundling is something I am concerned about. To get the service provider, one still needs to pay out money for a subscription, but how much will that really be and how much will the viewer have to put up with when it comes to commercials on your piece of equipment, be it phone, ipad or whatever? Years ago I asked, “who would ever watch a TV show on this little phone screen?” Well people have been doing it (not me), but now it looks like they are creating more of a need for ipads big and small, but bigger than a phone to now watch videos on. Is the chip in the head far away?
