How you to maximize the utilization of Smart TV? (satellite tv, shows, channels)

[spalam01]

I just bought the Samsung Smart TV and I am wondering how to better utilize it... without paying additional monthly $$ for Cable/Satellite TV

I see You tube can be accessed using smart TV, which is excellent.

Apart from this free resource, how can one derive value out of smart TV

Please advice

I'd suggest setting up Plex. I don't have a Smart TV so I use a Roku 3, but your Samsung should have Plex built in. The app on the TV will interface with a free program you set up on your computer. You can use it to stream audio and video files stored on your computer's hard drive right to your TV. It also does some streaming channels from the Internet. For example, you can watch shows on Hulu on your TV without having to pay for Hulu Plus.
