I don't miss dial-up internet, I just don't. I don't even like the sound because it's just digital screeches and it's a sound that makes me cringe a little upon hearing it. Because I remember the times when I'd be listening to music with headphones with volume high and then that fucking digital screech just blares into my ears.

I don't miss waiting 30 minutes to load a page. I don't miss a bit of it.

Paid streaming, sure - you get the nice bitrate.

Free streaming (or Netflix bottom tier) vs Free Broadcast? Broadcast wins hands down in quality

I've seen silky smooth 60fps 720p streams coming over the air, compared to what I was getting with Netflix through cable.
