stream stuff, pirate stuff. how many people are cordcutting these days?
Well Parks Associates estimated in 2008 (which was obviously 10 years ago) that about 900,000 Americans cut the cord. I bet that number is so much higher now!

I really don't think they know about Kodi or such IPTV options. Or there are other options like Amazon Video, Hulu, Netflix and YouTube.
