Wait, you guys have to pay for cable in order to get internet? I've never paid for cable in my life, just internet.
It depends on the company, at least here in the United States. I can most of the time pay for internet without cable of any kind, but I know some companies that don't allow that.
Monopolies.
A lot of the time you can theoretically do it without the bundle, but the promo prices that are the only way pricing is remotely in the neighborhood of reasonable only apply to the bundle.
No. It’s an option some companies sell as a bundle. I have gotten free cable box with free channels in order for me to get me hooked but I never plugged them in.
