We had Dish TV and Dish Satellite internet primarily because six months out of the year we live in the high mountain areas of Colorado, and there are not other alternatives. When we moved to Arizona in the winter we subscribed to Century Link for our internet which has almost unlimited usage for the better plan. We had a 15 gigabyte data limit for internet with Dish in the mountains. With the unlimited usage we were able to purchase a Roku which enables us to have lots of movies and add other services to our TV and run it through the Roku. If you subscribe to Sling TV and pay two months in advance, Sling will send you a free Roku. A Roku like the one Sling TV sends free costs $40 at Walmart. Sling TV can be cancelled at any time but it enables you to have lots of channels including many sports channels such as ESPN, ESPN2, and ESPN3, TNT, the History Channel, some movie channels and many more channels all for $20 a month. We also subscribe to Netflix for $10 a month. We also have Amazon Prime movies which comes with the Amazon Prime Membership of $100 a year, Roku also offers free movies on the Roku channels. Can you imagine all the movies you have access to for a fraction of the cost of having Dish or Direct TV and having to pay for the premium movie channels. Our internet and satellite TV when we are in Colorado is about $175 a month
Using the Roku which operates off of the Century Link internet which costs $65 a month for unlimited usage, Sling Box for $20 a month, Amazon Prime for $8.33 a month, and Netflix for $10 a month , the internet and TV services along with the movies available costs us less than $105 a month. We have a large selection of movies , news channels, and many of the channels that come with Dish or Direct TV.
You ask what about local channels or TV. If you live in or near a larger city that has all the local network stations such as NBC, CBS, and ABC, that can be handled. There is a Clearview antenna that sticks to a window nearby your TV that usually can get up to 40 or 50 channels which would include the local news channels. Also there is an aerial bar by GE that is an 18″ black bar that you can set on the window sill or stand up by the window that will get as many as 40 channels. Many of these channels have old time programming like GRIT, Decades, Bounce, the marketing channels, Mexican channels, religious channels, etc. For the one time cost of $30 or less you can get a Clearview antenna or a GE aerial bar.
Think of how much you save over a years time, probably as much as $1000 compared to having Dish or Direct and an internet service that limits the usage.
