We've been whittling down our Cable TV bill over the last 5 years a little at a time, dropping services and replacing them with Netflix and TIVO (DVR). We are down to Standard cable (70 channels)... most of which we do not watch.
I am dropping cable TV altogether this summer along with our TIVO contract. I will use Windows 7 with Media Center as a free DVR and Over the Air Transmission (OTA) for the major networks.
BTW Windows Media Center is a great DVR!
Netflix streaming + Netflix DVD + Amazon Instant (The Pay per View for certain movies and TV shows) + OTA/DVR TV
We will try it for a year and see how it goes. We will save a little money, but Comcast will probably just cap internet usage bytes and get those dollars back.
