Here's How You Can Watch Live TV On Your Computer!

By Grant Dougan

With so many cable TV and satellite TV alternatives, today we decided to look at yet another alternative for you to get your TV fix from. More and more people are watching live TV on the net so we did some exploring around and learned more about this choice.

Part of the reason why many more people are viewing TV online now is because of the dramatic increase in the video quality of video quality and there are now a huge amount of channels you can watch. Before it was extremely difficult to locate any of the most popular channels and the quality was rough.

Now the technology is to the level where you can watch thousands of channels and watch them all in high definition quality. It's incredible the advances that have occured and it's no surprise many people are turning their computers into media centers.

So how do you get live TV on the web?

As you may have guessed, you need to install a specialized internet television program on your PC. Let's go over a couple of features to look for when you're deciding on an online TV viewing program.

A wide selection of channels is important in a good internet television program. Naturally you want the popular TV networks ABC, FOX, ESPN, HBO etc) but you should also get access to a bunch of specialty channels as well. The best internet TV software programs will always let you watchover a thousand channels.

An amazing feature that I found is the ability to schedule and record your favorite programs. It's kind of like a "Tivo" - you are able to record whatever show you want so that you are able to view it later when you wish to. Not all the softwares offer this look for it when you're shopping around. You should also be given the option to hook up your computer to your TV set if you want to watch it on your main TV set.

Finally, look for a software program that you only have to pay a one-time fee and where you won't be billed any monthly fees. When compared to a cable or satellite TV bill it's a great value to simply have to pay the once. If there's a monthly fee, stay away! You be able to get a much better value.

On The Whole, I was really impressed with what I found. For about $45 you receive complete access to all the best channels to watch directly on your computer. It's also awesome if you own a laptop since you can watch TV even when you're on the road. If you love TV you're a TV fan, it's definitely taking a look!
