Cord-cutting just means replacing your cable package with internet-based services. Done right, you keep live TV and sports and pay a fraction of the price. Here's how to start.
1. Check your internet
You only need your existing broadband. Aim for ~25 Mbps per 4K stream. Keep your internet plan; drop only the TV package.
2. Pick how you'll watch
- Streaming apps for on-demand movies and shows
- A live-TV service or IPTV for channels, news and sports
- Most people combine them, or use one IPTV service for everything
3. Keep your sports
This is where people get stuck. A full IPTV service like KanovaTV carries live sports and PPV that streaming apps charge extra for, including games that get blacked out in Canada.
4. Do the math
Cable runs $95-$147/month; four streaming apps average $69/month. One IPTV plan starts at $20/month for all of it.
5. Switch without missing a beat
Set up your new service before you cancel cable. Start a free 24-hour KanovaTV trial, install it on your TV (see the Setup Guide), and cancel cable once you're happy.
