It can be kind of expensive. I have net, cellphone, and Xbox Live. If you buy Xbox Live by the year, it's not so bad.
I don't have a landline, which confused the hell out of my landlord. I also don't get TV/cable (and so, of course, no Tivo) and just torrent/DVD all my television shows. I enjoy TV a lot more with crystal clear pictures and no interruptions. And I can finish d/ling a torrent of the east coast feed before a show airs in California, so it's not like I even have a time delay. I have an iPod and got a new car stereo with an Aux In jack, neatly avoiding satellite baloney.
I'm thinking of getting NetFlix just cause I think it would save me money (buy fewer movies) as well as increase my breadth-of-watching.
Anyways. Yeah, it can be really expensive. Which is why you kind of have to pick and choose your entertainment poisons.
