Maybe one of you can tell me what exactly is netflix? I thought it was a movies only download kind of thing.
For the past two years Mr. OG has called the cable company when our bill suddenly went up $30 each time with no notice. Twice he talked them down into giving us the promo price or else we were going to look elsewhere (dish), I don’t know how long we can keep this up. We like our Fox news and western channel (we pay huge for the western channel because we have to buy the HD pkg with it or something like that).
All I can think to recommend is a Roko or Firestick electrical appliance.
With a Firestick you can stream a menu of stuff to any TV through your modem, and spare yourself television fare.
Hope that helps.
Netflix is streaming video content, delivered over the Internet. You don't download anything - you just use either a computer or a streaming device like Apple TV or Roku to connect to the Internet and watch whatever you want, just like cable TV except you control the time and place you want to watch rather than letting the cable channels do it. The Netflix servers push the content out to you in real-time.
Netflix requires a decent quality broadband Internet connection and it doesn't have "everything". It does have a lot of recent movies and TV shows, including international content. But for $9.95 a month, it will save you a fortune on cable TV bills and DVD/Blu-ray rentals or purchases.
I was a skeptic about streaming video at first, but Netflix and Dramafever (Korean/Asian movies/TV) have changed my mind.
