There are a lot of options. One would be to drop Spectrum altogether and use CenturyLink for internet only. You can get 80 megabits per second download for $45 and the price is "fixed for life", or until you change the service. Subscribe to YouTubeTV or one of the other internet streaming services that provides many of the "cable channels" such as Fox News as well as the local ABC, NBC, CBS, and Fox affiliates out of Orlando. Depending on your TV, you may need a streaming box such as Roku or a Firestick (there are others). If you really need a landline, buy a Ooma Voice-over-IP box. Google "cut the cord" for additional information.
