Well, most shows are available online.

I got rid of cable over 3 years ago. I did miss a few shows, but most I could watch on Hulu the next day. I also find I watch less TV (which is a good thing)
I also have Netflix, and some shows that I missed are now on there. I can now watch a complete season in a few days instead of waiting for them to come out each week. I don't mind being behind on the shows.

I enjoy our basic cable package (part of all-inclusive rent) hooked up to my HTPC more for live events, sports, award shows, comedy network. But mostly I'll use Netflix, downloaded seasons, or downloaded movies.
