I was going to point this out also, Sewnoma beat me to it.

We have Netflix and Hulu. Netflix is a streaming service, we get it through both our PS4 (gaming console with internet access) and Hulu. Hulu is kind of like cable, you pay a monthly fee for the service and you have a box, but it's WAAAAY cheaper and there are no commercials. That, to us, is the best part. (I am so done with commercials, every time I go to a hotel or a friend's house, I wonder how people can tolerate them so....) We pay $32 a month for both services, which is much more affordable than our old satellite bill of $95. Hulu has tiered pricing, it starts at $7.99 a month for service with minimal commercials (we started with this option, it's 2 or 3 commercials vs the standard 9 or 10 or whatever "regular" tv has). We decided to bump it up to the non-commercial version and added a couple of premium channels, such as HBO and Showtime, and now we pay $22/month, which includes taxes. We pay $10/month for Netflix.

Netflix has started their own programming, much like the networks. Longmire was originally on A&E, they cancelled the series and the fans went ballistic. The cast and the fans lobbied Netflix to pick it up and fortunately they did. Netflix also has other really, really good original programming: House of Cards, Orange is the New Black, Travelers, Grace and Frankie, The Crown, The OA, Sense8, and on and on. They also have original documentaries and stand-up comic specials (Jim Gaffigan, Dana Carvey, Joe Rogan).

Hulu carries more of the newer content. You can watch the 5 most recent episodes of programs that are currently airing on the major networks - for instance, Lethal Weapon, which airs on Fox. In contrast, Netflix will show older stuff, but you can watch an entire season in one weekend.

Edit: my husband wanted me to add that with our Showtime and HBO subscription through Hulu, we watch awesome shows like Billions, Homeland, Ray Donovan, and Game of Thrones.
