Time to pay back Comcast, TWc and their leftist ideology.
Are they in 1080P?
Better yet, hook up a computer with an HDMI output to your TV.
How about hockey?
Apple TV and an iPad with Airplay isn’t a bad set up either.
There needs to be conservative channels and shows available on these devices!
ROKU or ChromeCast or whatever becomes the next big thing
No thanks, I love my Verizon FIOS.
I have close to 100 movie channels , many with no commercials and all my boxes are multi-room DVRs so I can watch them whenever I want.
Comcast sucks, I wouldn’t recommend it to my worst enemy.
How are Hulu and other providers accessed if you are not connected via cable?
Tell me about METV. Please.
working on it!!!!
I’m wondering how many sports events you can get online. I only watch news, sports, and movies.
I haven’t had cable since 2005.

And EVERY show is on the internet for free anyway.
I have an OTA (Over-The-Air) HDTV antenna that's good for 300 miles on top of my ham radio tower. I can turn it in any direction, pick up a TON of channels.
Also have a Roku to get Netflix ($8/mo.) and Hulu Plus ($8/mo.) and between the OTA and Netflix and Hulu we find plenty of good QUALITY content to watch.

Ok. Help me out here. I am going to get a SmarTV and don’t want cable or satellite. I can get Roku and Hulu which will let me watch all the movies and television shows I want, anytime I want. How about Fox News? Is there a way to stream that?
You’ll pay Comcast as much for just the Internet access as for Internet plus Cable, where’s the gain?
I had a local cable service for my computer access, and television boxes.
I cancelled our three cable boxes and opted to purchase subscritions to Netflix, Hulu, and Amazon Prime.
I am spending less than $25.00 per month on these three services. On Hulu I pick up television shows within 24 - 48 hours after they air on the networks. I can also sign on to the internet with my iPhone, iPad Mini, or iPad Air.
I have an LG 54.56” television set. It’s 3d. It converts anything that it airs to 3d on command. I can connect the three devices I just mentioned and stream through the television. And the television converts them to 3d if I want it to.
When everyone else was watching Kerry Underwood in ‘The Sound of Music’ a week so back, I was watching it in 3d. Folks..., NICE!
These threes services don’t provide first run movies. I don’t mind watching some dated ones. They do offer a smidgeon of more recent movies, but I don’t want to mislead anyone. If you’re looking for the cable-like experience, these aren’t quite there. Still, for $25.00 a month, some of us aren’t going to quibble all that much.
It’s nice to have access to some of the old shows we used to watch in the 80s, 90s..., if you catch my drift.
If you need something more recent I’d like to suggest you consider iTunes. I purchase some great movies about three months down the pike from their release. At times I can purchase them for $12.99. Sometimes they’re as much as $19.99, but generally no more than $17.99. Wait a few more months and the prices go down further.
iTunes has specials. You can develop quite a library over time. The beauty of doing it on iTunes is that you don’t have to store the DVDs or Blue-Ray disks in your home.
I’ve been replacing it a little at a time. It’s great to be able to download one of your movies no matter where you are as long as you can connect via WiFi. Take a trip across the nation to your relative’s home, put on one of your movies one evening. Very cool.
As the man said, you have options folks. I can watch movies when I’m out for dinner by myself. I can watch a television show. I can watch my own videos too.
Television, video has never been better.
