I did something similar. No one can figure out when I say the only bundle I want is phone and Internet. How can I live without television? they ask. Well, easily! I had only local phone service (I too use Magic Jack, but I don't feel it's wise for me not to have a land line) and the slowest Internet available on DSL. I had some service problems and made it clear that I was ready to walk, at which time I was offered country-wide unlimited phone service along with the local AND the highest Internet speed available on DSL, which has worked out well.

Where we live now each home has WiFi via fiber optics into each home. It is part of our HOA fees. So we are only paying for Direct TV.
We hope to get rid of the dish when we move to TV and have a HDTV antenna and use Hulu plus, Amazon Prime, Netflix etc for viewing options via Apple TV or Roku.
Do any of you have Internet only? Rather than bundling services?
If so, what can we expect the monthly cost to be for broadband WiFi only?
Thanks!!!

I've been told that HDTV antennas do not work in this area, irrelevant to me since I have no interest in contemporary television. Since it is just not wise for me not to have a land line (long story...), I have unlimited long distance and the highest speed for Internet through DSL and pay about $60/month. The Magic Jack serves as an extra line, and I also travel with it and a tiny but full-featured phone available on ebay for about $3. See this link:
