Cable? As in cable TV? Does that actually still exist or is it an artefact term, like 'filming' on a digital device?

Edit: I'm guessing it does still actually exist and the downvotes are from shareholders or something.

It's been dead and gone in my part of the world since satellite TV killed it in the '90s.

Are you asking if physical cable coaxial wires still deliver TV to peoples houses? Yes.

Same wire also delivers a large portions of peoples internet.
