Sure, for maybe a couple days at a time when I'm on vacation with the family. But in general? No. That's like asking "Have you ever thought about just not talking to fellow human beings anymore?" or "Don't you just get sick of electricity?" Technology has value, it serves purpose. There are things on the net that are a luxury, sure - but that's also true of cell phones, televisions, etc... But there are also things that are perfectly legit uses of those technologies that can make your life better.

That's the same answer I give every year when those "turn off the tv!" people come around and try to get you to rebel against the appliance for which you paid good money (and quite likely pay every month), just to prove a point. Dude if I didn't want a tv I wouldn't have bought one. (That, by the way, will ultimately become a different answer once the amount of online programming balances out with what the tv can offer, but that's a different topic.)
