9. Television commercials were banished from my world more than a decade ago.

If I can't make them go away for a reasonable price I simply don't watch.

My wife and I usually subscribe to two or three commercial-free streaming services at a time. That's plenty of television for us.

We don't have cable, satellite, or broadcast television. My wife and I were only watching DVDs we rented or bought in thrift stores until one of our children, home from college, set us up with Netflix.

Sometimes if we see a movie we really like at the theater we'll buy the DVD new.

I don't care to support the traditional television industry. They created Reagan and Trump, they can go to hell.
