This needn’t be the end of your money-saving journey. Now that you’ve returned your cable boxes dove into the world of streaming video and/or over-the-air broadcast television, you can focus on improving your cord-cutting experience and saving even more cash.

If you’ve already perused my beginner’s guide to cord-cutting, this week’s column is a postscript on what to do next. Read the full column on TechHive.

Regardless of who’s right, the news is indisputably bad in the short-term for cord-cutters. Sling TV also dropped regional Fox Sports last summer, and FuboTV followed suit in January. With PlayStation Vue’s shutdown last month, that leaves Hulu + Live TV ($55 per month) and AT&T TV Now ($80 per month for the “Max” package) as the last streaming options standing for Fox Sports regionals.

Long-term, though, I don’t see how this situation is tenable for Sinclair given that cable satellite TV subscriptions in free-fall and YouTube TV is one of the only sources of growth for big channel bundles. Unless Sinclair wants to see its audience dwindle further, something will have to change.

Netflix’s new rankings: If you’ve watched Netflix this week, you might have noticed some numerical rankings next to certain shows. This is part of a new feature in which Netflix reveals daily top 10 lists for its movies and shows. To see the full rankings, just head to either the “Movies” or “TV Shows” section of the Netflix and and look for the “Top 10” row. At the very least, it’s a nice way to break out of whatever algorithmic mold Netflix has cast for you.

Free streaming services snatched up: Last Friday, the Wall Street Journal reported that Fox is looking to acquire Tubi, a free streaming service with more than 25 million active users. That hasn’t happened yet, but this week, Comcast did buy a separate free streaming service called Xumo. The move is reminiscent of when Viacom bought the free streaming service Pluto TV last year.

Even if you’ve never heard of Xumo, you might be familiar with its work, as it powers the free streaming channels that are built into LG TVs, contributes some content to The Roku Channel on Roku players and smart TVs, and was behind the live streaming service that Redbox launched last week. By acquiring free streaming services, TV networks are likely looking to prop up their ad revenues, which have been declining as cord-cutting increases, and possibly sell streaming and traditional TV ads as a package deal.

While I’ve seen a fair share of doom-and-gloom sentiment over these deals in certain cord-cutting circles, I’m not too stressed about it. Pluto TV has only gotten better since Viacom (now ViacomCBS) bought it, with more content and slicker apps, and I suspect the same will happen to these other services as they get acquired by larger media companies. To let them languish (or worse, turn them into paid services) would be a waste.

Even if you don’t have a 4K TV, I think these are the best streaming devices for the money. Roku’s Streaming Stick+ has better Wi-Fi performance and a more portable design than cheaper models, while the Fire TV Stick 4K is just a lot faster than the non-4K version. As for how Roku and Fire TV devices compare, you can read all about that here.
