You need to add the various Netflix options and the commercial free Hulu to make this more accurate.
Will add!
Disney +
Who would I use for internet..is is hack proof .
Tell me about using my TiVo with my Plex account, please…
I just used the closest priced item to what i actually spend on Netflix.
You should add DirecTV Now and YouTube TV as options.
We already have DirecTV Now there, but you’re right in that we should add YouTube TV.
I see many services here, but I don’t see Hulu?
Hulu and Hulu with Live TV should be there. 🙂
How about cost for live local network channels?
Live local network stations are free. Only cost would be for the antenna or tuner.
Go to “WISH” app on your cellphone. Great digital antennas with rotors are available for $34.99 + s/h. Amazon also has them and you get it much quicker. My problem is finding an ISP at a reasonable cost. Comcast is about $100. If you’ve dealt with them in the past few years you know they lie and will say whatever they think you want to hear to shut you up and get you off the phone. I pray for the day when everyone cuts the cord and Comcast goes bankrupt. Bloodsuckers, leaches and parasites!!!
I using Cable till it was cost me over $1,000 per year. I told the cable co I was taking the aluminum foil off pizza box and saving over $1,000 per. Order a 150 mil amp antenna for under $30.00 Home Depot had top fence tub $20.00 for antenna mast. Order one month of Sling TV for free Roku $20.00. Order used Tablo $120.00
Total $190.00 I was up and running.
It did taking spending some money but still using everything for 5 years so less than $20.00 each year and dropping. I do a few each rent movies
I only get Netflix for just few month each year and only use $5.95 plan.
Currently tryout Watch ATT see good has more current movies over Netflix.
Using a outdoor antenna 15 foot. Picking 115 channels but only using 26 channels.
A minor note, but if you’re already paying for any of these services (such as Amazon Prime or Netflix), don’t check them off on the list to see how much you’d save.
How about recording? Cable subscribers pay monthly fee for DVR box and a no-monthly-fee fox can cost $249-$399 one time expense. Should this be included in the calculator?
Add that in your monthly total. I can’t get anything to add up the differences, however. I see no “Total” that works.

Looking for an updated calculator to include new streaming services Apple TV+, Disney+, YouTube TV, YouTube Premium, etc…
Hi Christopher, thanks for stopping by! We’re working on updating some key things on our site, so hopefully we’ll have an up-to-date calculator here soon.
I am a total dummy when it comes to all this, is there anything other than cable that I can get to watch any live college/professional football/basketball/and or tennis games/matches?
Yes! You might want to check out our guide to watching sports without cable.
About time to update your calculator to include YouTube and Disney+. I am sure there are more that are recently up, running & available to consumers that are not on the calculator yet.
What a shit calculator.
How much *would* you pay for internet on its own? Uhh, $-10,000?
Wow! Look at your savings! -$9,982.02 per month. Crap.
I would like to speak to you about this. I tried texting you earlier. I’m not sure if e received my text. Can you give me a good number and the best time to call. Or, can you call me
Please let me know. Thanks

if you are a current customer of Verizon FIOS, try getting any of those “internet only deals” for 39.99, and watch them laugh at you.
You are missing the Disney+, Hulu, ESPN+ bundle.
You are also missing YouTube Premium (formerly YouTube Red) which is just ads free YouTube.
Please Add Acorn TV – $60/year
Also, T-Mobile just added T-Vision in $10, $40, and $50 plus $5/mo for Cloud DVR (100 hrs)
how about peacock discovery+ hbo max
I used to show this tool all the time when I taught my class cord cutting class at the library. But looks like it doesn’t actually calculate anymore. Any chance of it getting fixed?
Hi Nate, so glad you liked it! We’re working on it, I promise. I’m hoping one day soon we can have this set up to automatically update pricing so that it’s always up to date. In the meantime, I’ll be updating it manually whenever I can — thanks for your patience!
Thanks for updating it, but I can’t get the calculate to actually calculate anything! Plus there’s this message near the top, no matter what browser I am using.

Am I the only one seeing this and unable to get it to work?
Some others to add:
HBO Max, Paramount+, Peacock
Thank you Nicole, we’re working on it!
Can you add the options for Canada?
Can you add options for other countries that are not the USA
Are there any service providers that would allow selecting a limited number of channels (for instance…20) from a list of ALL available from all/any providers in a given area?
I would be interested is cable news networks, limited sports, science and history. movies.
Various packages promote allot of bloated, useless channels (in my opinion…sorry) but then charge add-0n fees for Golf channels, Newsmax, etc., etc.
Thank you
