Internet Tv sounds too good to be true ? See for yourself. GOTO http://www.facebook.com/ads/manage/#/pages/Internet-Tv/94310348378

Become a “fan of Internet Tv” for free & then take the Internet Tv Challenge. For a month, write down your favorite Cable shows and submit them to “fan of” Internet Tv. See whether most of the shows are available online (either on Basic or Premium).

Watch those shows and comment whether they “suffice” on wide-screen viewing. The Challenge – see whether at least 75% of your shows are available on FREE Basic Tv & whether 12.5% of the remaining are available on Premium (for $5 per month).

If they are available, see how much you pay for Cable and multiply by 24 months. Then get a quote (fans of Internet Tv) for how much you would spend on Internet Tv for the same period. I will easily save over $1,200. Never have a late charge or have to worry about returning the tape again.

Brian Dietz .. my friend you are a dinosaur. Just think, 100 years ago, there were some who questioned the auto, airplane, lightbulb, photograph, phonograph and even electricity. They sited the example of the “average” American who had NONE of those things as “proof” those inventions would not take the place of the horse, the pony exress or buggy whips.

Look around you, everyone is on the net. I signed up with http://www.shop.utilix-co.com and paid $65. What I found out is that about 87% of the content of Cable or Satellite Tv is available online. However, less than 50% of Internet Tv can be viewed on Cable or Satellite.

In short, I can watch virtually anything you can watch on Cable much cheaper. However, there are many shows (old and some new) you cannot watch. Also, I love to watch the news . . hated the slanted nature of Cable news shows. Now, I can watch the “real” news and never miss a story.

As far as the picture, I watch Internet Tv on my big screen in HD and surround sound. So, while you are paying $70 per month or $1680 for two years, I pay less than $300 and get more. This is why the Cable people are nervous . .

I used to be a Suddenlink customer up until mid January. I “cut the cord” so did two people who have offices next to me at work. I love it. I rely on web and over the air reception…Vista Media Center serves as my DVR. I would have had a harder time cutting it if it wasn’t for ESPN360, but they offer a good selection of sporting events and very good streaming quality over my 3mg DSL connection.
