I went from 1GB internet and a tv package with far too many channels, and the Disney+ triple play for ~$350 to 2GB GFiber internet and Hulu with Live TV (with an upgrade of the Disney package to Hulu without commercials) for ~$210. The only trade off was losing access to the local RSN, but I can use a VPN on my streaming device to get ESPN+ to let me watch the local hockey team.
100% worth it.
