If you’ve read our guides to watching other cable networks without cable, then you probably know what to expect here: skinny bundles, baby! When it comes to live TV, skinny bundles are a cord-cutter’s best friend. Skinny bundles aren’t free — they’re a form of pay TV — but they’re considered a cord-cutting solution because they differ in a few key ways from cable and satellite companies. Skinny bundles get their name from their stripped-down channel packages, which are (usually) tiny compared to the countless channels (with nothing on) cable offers. And there’s one more important difference, which makes skinny bundles a true cord-cutting solution: Skinny bundles are delivered “over the top” (OTT), meaning over the internet rather than by traditional cable infrastructure. In other words, you don’t need a cable company, which means no regional monopolies. Nice!
