Watching tv online

I appreciate the guest post, Emerson Moses

It is amazing what we have access to online. I am seriously considering canceling our cable service because all of the shows that I want to watch can be seen online for free. Many of the channels show most or all of their shows online, and for only a few dollars a month, we can have access to movies as well. With our internet provided through CLEARtvbundle.com, and with a membership to a website that shows movies, it would cost half of what we pay in cable alone. The truth is that my husband and I rarely watch television, and we spend most of our time together outside camping, hiking, etc. We both work full time, and his job is very stressful. My husband’s stress release is to go do something active, such as a bike ride. We have discussed for months the possibility of canceling our cable because we just never use it. The only thing that would be a problem would be major sporting events, such as the World Series, Super Bowl, and the major college bowl games. My husband is unwilling to miss these sporting events. However, I am going to try to convince him that we do not need cable television.

Rather than cutting cable or satellite why don't you switch to DISH Network where they offer you a free online video portal called dish online. Dish online allows me to watch my same programming channels plus some Hulu content as well. It’s a lot easier and simple for me to search for a specific show or movie I want to watch, plus I can use Dish Remote Access to schedule my DVR recordings from my computer. Working for DISH I can tell you that dish online is the only online video portal to offer 150,000 movies, TV shows, clips and trailers into one easy interface.
