For me the decision was made two and a half years ago. No more TV. Don't miss it.

So yeah, smash the TV for sure.
Considering I haven't watched tv for about 12 years now and have not owned one for three years, my answer is easy. LOL

Although it's nice to watch the continual line up of HGTV, TLC, Bravo blah blah...now you can watch clips or entire episodes online. TV and cable would go. I gots to have my internet, w/ data card. Have laptop/data card 3g will travel, lol.

No need to destroy one or the other, they are being merged together slowly to become one powerful force. To destroy ....you.

TV itself sucks. I only use my TV for gaming. So Internet stays

There really is no need for TV seeing as you can get whatever is on TV on the internet.

You can watch TV on the internet, but not the other way around.

Are you joking? It's not even a comparison. You get news and videos from practically any source, and almost unlimited information, with the Internet.

The TV is a single controlled source that only shows a few good programs every now and then.
