Bad Economy? Dump Your Cable Bill And Watch !0 Times More Channels

Month out and in my wife and I would scour the budget to locate any small nugget of savings. Grocery shopping was optimized. Dining out eliminated (or at best severely reduced). We dropped a fitness center membership. We even dropped the telephone land line. Saving any money we're able to was a main concern. We closely monitored expenditures and income and came to a horrifying realization: The TV was the next thing to go! We were living as frugal as you could stand, but did we have to live in the dark ages? Where is the humanity?

Before we started trimming bills came to be, I would regularly call my satellite provider for top level rate. I would alert the provider that cable television had a very competitive rate and while I really enjoyed their service, money is money. This routine would occur on a bi-annual basis, and although tedious, probably saved us a couple hundred dollars annually. But this time there was no tactic that would completely get rid of the bill. It was simply the next thing to go. Then I came across the improvements produced in streaming video.

With continuous improvements in bandwidth and video playing quality about the home PC and laptops, online video watching is rising. At least I might even be on the leading edge of the new trend. A number of different services can be found offering channels around the world, movies and music. Channel lists 10-20 times larger than any current satellite and cable tv provide offers today. Best of all, you can select just the programs you intend to watch, schedule their recording, and in some instances, you may also burn the videos to DVD to transport with you wherever you are going. Software programs are provided to allow you to make use of your PC as an entertainment center, sending streaming content to other PCs and your television. Most of all, these new services in many cases are presented to you for under just one month's satellite or cable TV bill.
