I grew up without cable TV, didn't have it when I left home for college, and haven't really found a need for it since. I'm still occasionally tempted to switch from my DSL line to cable 'net access to save money, but I just don't think I can bring myself to write that check to Comcast every month.
For that matter, I haven't had a POTS phone line into my home any time this decade. Now that my cellphone runs over my home WiFi, I really don't need much more than a single twisted-pair line running out of my house for all my entertainment and communications. (Of course, I'd gladly move to fiber instead of copper, were it available in my area...)
