There’s more to cutting the cord than just getting Hulu and say prime, here are a few questions to ask in the class:
1: what services do I need to get all the channels I like watching? Tennis, golf, auto racing on FS1/FS2/CBSSN/Motortrend, pickleball, Yellowstone, vampire interviews, seal team, syfy, and many others just for an example. I just touched on these because these involve multiple services in most cases.
2: network speeds and latencies. I hate watching a show and it takes mins to buffer before it plays. Now I can stream multiple shows in seconds.
3: a big 1 is recording. How many simultaneous recording can I do? How many shows can I have recorded? How long are these recording available to me? Are these recordings done in the cloud? You can’t watch golf and the auto race at the same time, or you might have multiple shows in primetime. If you record say 4 shows at once, it will affect your upload network bandwidth and if you want to use the computer to send your kids some photos, it might take hours to do this.
Just a few things to consider. I have looked at all of this and more over the years and still do when my current service is up

you expected more? most of these sessions are given by people that have enough experience answering just email... much like the cybersecurity BS that is peddled around here.
