5 Million US Households No Longer Have TVs

http://www.usatoday.com/story/money/business/2013/04/07/zero-tv-homes/2061127/

A growing number of them have stopped paying for cable and satellite TV service, and don't even use an antenna to get free signals over the air. These people are watching shows and movies on the Internet, sometimes via cellphone connections. Last month, the Nielsen Co. started labeling people in this group "Zero TV" households, because they fall outside the traditional definition of a TV home. There are 5 million of these residences in the U.S., up from 2 million in 2007.

I see this as a Positive.

  1. This is an interesting trend.
    Why pay for cable when there isn't anything worth watching anyway!

  2. +1 PW, In my household the TV sits black, absolutely ZERO! on. If we were holding a conversation and someone pointed out the latest and greatest new TV show, I would honestly not have a clue.
