SUMMARY:Life After Cable…Entertainment Alternatives! (REPEAT SESSION)
DESCRIPTION:REPEAT SESSION–Wednesday September 19\, 2018!\nThe level of interest in this topic has been incredible! As shown in the photo at the bottom of this post\, we’ve had packed houses for earlier offerings of this acclaimed workshop. As has been the case in our previous editions\, our available seating was filled almost immediately\, prompting us to schedule a multiple repeat editions. The next one is set for the morning of Wednesday\, September 19\, 2018. \nIn case you missed it the first time around\, here’s the description for this seminar: \nCord-cutting–the act of severing the traditional link to cable television–has grown substantially in recent years as two factors collide: the availability of a host of new options on the home entertainment market\, and growing dissatisfaction with cable companies’  price/reliability/service model. On this first factor\, the past few years have brought services like Netflix\, Amazon Prime Video\, Sling TV\, Huku\, Roku\, and others into the mainstream vocabulary\, while on the second factor\, many households have begun to take exception to what is perceived as a continual ramp up of pricing from the cable companies and somewhat of a deterioration in reliability and service levels. \nFor many households\, price has been the driver to consider dropping their cable service in favor of a newer\, cheaper option. Yes\, the cable companies gleefully advertise that their contract gives you hundreds and hundreds of channels\, and it breaks down to perhaps pennies for each of them. But realistically\, how many different channels do you really want? Most people typical have only a handful of favorites\, maybe a half dozen or so\, while the “hundreds and hundreds” available on cable are rarely–if ever–accessed. Here’s where the pay-as-you-go options of the rapidly emerging streaming market emerge as attractive alternatives. \nOK\, but how do I get there? What do I need to have to get there? And when I get there\, what have I given up? These and many other relevant questions will be answered in this informative two-hour session presented by the Foundation. Experts from Best Buy’s “Geek Squad” training staff will explain the marketplace\, covering the equipment and contract details you’ll need to consider in order to take the leap. \nAlso\, based on some of the questions that came up during previous sessions\, we’ve added the topics of “TV antennas” and “shopping for a TV…what you need to focus on.”  \nHere are the details for this repeat session: \nDate:     Wednesday\, September 19\, 2018 \nTime:     10:00 am to Noon \nPlace:    Lady Lake Library\, 225 West Guava Street\, Lady Lake\, FL 32159 \nThere is no cost for this workshop\, and light refreshments will be served. \nTo register: \nContact the AMAC Foundation\, 888-750-2622 or email: info@amacfoundation.org
