I don't have "TV" in the sense that I can't watch e.g. live sports. But I have a couple large screens in the house that I can use to stream e.g. Netflix (or I can just watch it on a tablet or PC). I'm not sure it's really that pedantic. "No I won't be watching the game because I don't have TV." (Though if you had YouTube TV, that's getting into pedantic territory.)
Right, if your response to "are you watching the game?" is "no, I can't watch it", fair enough. My scorn is more reserved for people who willingly volunteer the "I don't have a TV" information as some kind of 'badge of honour', yet they watch five hours of Netflix on their laptop every evening.
Especially when they do have a TV. In the Us at least TV refers to those large screens the broadcast system is referred to as cable or satellite, which it is true very few people have these days.
Oh I agree. For me it was a purely financial decision of "Should I keep paying $100/month for this service I haven't used in weeks or should I put some of it towards another streaming service or two?" And, while I'd like to have it every now and then for live sports, that's not worth $1000/year to me.
