I don't have cable, but pay $8 a month each for Netflix and Hulu Plus. They're run through my Xbox 360 so I view them on my large HDTV. For $16/mo, it's way more programming than I could ever watch.
The picture quality is great with both of them, easily on par with cable.
I also picked up a cheap ($7) antenna and can pick up all the local channels.
you need hulu plus to get a good picture; free hulu PQ is much lower. also, they don't have anything above 2-channel audio. it would be nice to have 5.1.
Eh... maybe my TV sucks, but the pic on regular Hulu streamed from my crappy laptop was more then acceptable. HD? No... but absolutely watchable.
Seeing that our town does not have cable available; and we do not have broadcast TV available; the only other option is to pay for a satellite dish; I think that internet TV is just fine.

Well, it could.
I just watched the Jekyll and Hyde game of Texas and BYU on ESPN2... on my PC. Actually, using the assist of an application for the purpose, I was able to display it on my TV. Bad resolution, mostly couldn't tell where the ball was but I could follow the ants running around.
There may be a subscription. I don't really know how to use that page, but it's there.
Thank you
For a while I was getting my TV episodes from pirate sources, but then my ISP found out and threatened to shut-off my internet connection.
True Blood used to be on 'The CW' website', but they took it down.
I had no idea that any one website had so many TV shows we could watch, I do hope it is legal. It says it is.
