During my week long stay in the hospital I had 2 nurses ask if I wanted the tv on. Nope, glasses are at home, can't see it.
Some channels were deleted from the directv program I had years ago. Would have to get the next program up to watch them. We got a Fire Stik instead. Most of the channels I wanted to watch would cost a bit more. I stayed busy and didn't care for what my wife watched. Could rent or buy DVD's cheaper for the movies I cared to watch. I haven't watched a local tv program in 10 years. All the news, weather reports and movies I can find on my computer. I do very little computer stuff on my phone.
