My whole life I've kept careful watch on anything that had a monthly bill. We only had a cable service once in NM when it wasn't possible to use an antenna. Now we get 60 channels on our antenna with no monthly charge.

It increased the farm productivity and, in general, made life easier because more work could be done with this 'mechanical beast'.
