The "Those other channels" package for cord cutters
My cable provider was proud to provide me with 200+ HD channels. My biggest reason for cutting the cord was that I watched about five channels, of which four could be obtained without cable. They always offer more, more, more...but I wanted less! So, even though cord-cutting is really about not paying for those "filler" channels for most of us, the good news is you can still have them for free! Pluto.TV provides a similar "guide" interface as most cable providers, and over 100 HD channels. And it's mostly just that: those filler channels you throw on the screen when you're bored, or to have something on in the background when doing other things. If you're into some of the cable channels, you'll notice a decline in program quality. If you're a cord-cutter who just wants the option to have "those other 100 channels I really don't watch", and without commercials taking up 1/3 of the airtime, Pluto.TV will fill that void at no cost.
