Lower Internet Bandwidth Requirements

With more devices connected to your home internet than ever, we know that bandwidth is important to the performance of your streaming services. If you’re shifting to streaming only, that increased traffic could result in choppy or unreliable streams. One main benefit of staying “plugged in” is never having to worry about missing your favorite show or the big game because of bandwidth or connectivity issues.

Easy Access to Local News and Sports

There’s no doubt about it, traditional cable subscriptions are the best and easiest way to stay connected to your local news and your favorite sports channels. If you can’t go without waking up to your local news programming, consider sticking with your Cox bundle. If you’re looking to pick and choose your sports channels to track your favorite teams, it may end up costing extra to get everything you need.

All Your Entertainment in One Place

Moving to streaming only can create a divided viewing experience with channels separated across various streaming or on-demand content providers. If you’re a channel surfer, or if you love the traditional guide view, consider sticking with your Cox bundle.
