You can downgrade your existing service to an "internet only" service, and subscribe to a streaming service that can provide the 11 channels you want. Go to "www.suppose.tv". This site allows you to select the channels you want and will show you what streaming service or services will provide these channels. You will need a smart TV, wifi bluray player, or a streaming stick device that will allow access to the streaming service apps that you subscribe to. Some of the popular services are "youtube tv" and "hulu plus". If you do these things, your monthly cost will probably be about half of what you are now paying. It may be a good idea to subscribe to the streaming service on a free trial basis before changing your existing service to see if they provide what you want. Whatever you do, you will need a good, reliable high speed internet service for the streaming service to work properly.
