I cut our Cox Cable off last week, and switched to VUE, coupled with Amazon FireSticks.
I love it!
I've looked into it several times over the last two years, and while it would save me money, I couldn't cobble together the channel line-up/offerings I wanted. VUE's channel line-ups are top notch now, including local channels in most markets.
Now, I've got virtually everything I had with Cox, but saving just shy of $100/month vs. what I was paying Cox.
The real surprise? The picture quality is BETTER on the Firestick/VUE than it was on the cable! Plus, I can stream on other devices at higher quality/less buffering than I experienced when trying to stream programming through Cox's Contour app. On top of that, when I travel (was out of town last weekend) I can still watch all of my channels, + the local channels where I'm at! Something I couldn't do with Cox Contour.
All-in-all, if someone is considering cutting the cord, getting a FireStick (we already have had Amazon Prime for years), and subscribing to VUE can be a big savings, and quality so far is superb.
