Charter wants to cash in on the cord-cutting craze too

Slowly but surely, cable companies are starting to understand that online streaming is the future of home entertainment, and rather than trying to fight the cord-cutting craze, more and more of them are cashing in on it. Charter has become the latest such company to do so with a new service called Spectrum, which offers as many as 35 broadcast networks for a $12.99/month subscription fee. Users can also choose a $19.99/month option that adds more than a dozen popular cable channels to the streaming roster. Also, for a limited time, Charter is throwing in a free Roku 3 with every subscription.
