 Cutting the Cord

Toni Valenstein and Brian Osgood lead a panel discussion on Cord Cutting on Feb 23,2024. They discussed the systems they use as well as some alternatives, the costs, and options. This was not a how-to discussion per se but more a discussion of the options. While there are many options to consider, the Computer Club does not endorse any one option over any other nor does it sell any services to cut the cord.
