Cutting the Cable Cord: Internet TV

Does it make sense to continue paying $100 per month for that 500-channel satellite or cable TV package when you focus your attention on 6 or 7 good shows? What about when you just know you want to watch something funny, but you don't have anything specific in mind? Are those channels your only way to ensure variety in your entertainment? Thanks to the internet, the answer to all these questions is "no."

TVs, Blu-ray players, video game consoles, and special internet TV boxes are now able to download and stream content online as soon as you power them up. Even if you don't have one of these new devices, you can be positive that you can plug your laptop or desktop computer into your home theater system and get access to all the same content and more.

You don't need cable anymore. These solutions will help you pull the plug.
