I rarely watch sports and tend to go for politics shows on the radio (we still have serious non-music radio in Britain) so I killed my cable years ago. Since then I have rarely seen something I want to watch advertised as cable only. However I often see "Netflix only" shows that make me wish I had Netflix. And I doubt I could live without Amazon TV. So I guess the cable and satellite TV stations are relying too much on sports and letting the ball drop on drama.

All it is going to take is for Netflix or Amazon to start buying major sports TV rights and the cable/satellite companies are going to become something today's youth will eventually be telling their grandchildren about in boring "TV was so different in my day" talks.
