I'm wondering the same thing.

It streams internet video to your TV. Lots of channels, some free and some charge. Lots of esoteric free content.

Get a roku box, netflix, and Hulu and you really could get rid of cable/satellite.

I have three LED TV's that can connect to anything on the internet as well as two Blu Ray DVD players that connect to the internet on my non-internet TV's.

I'd recommend a Sony Blu Ray before a Roku or any other box. At least you'll have a Blu Ray players.

Oh, and I disagree with your assumption. I'll never get rid of Direct TV and all of its channels. AT&T, Time Warner, Cox and the internet aren't even a close second.

More like 1,041.

I get to watch Chuck from the beginning again. WINNING

Meh. It depends on how invested you want to become in your electronic entertainment. I've got an old 32" TV in my living room. It has attached to it:

a blue ray player
one old video game system
a Roku
a VCR

The piece of furniture holding all of this marvelous technology is against a side wall of our living room. If you've stopped laughing long enough to continue reading yet, we do still have a couple of movie rental places in town that carry old VHS tapes so I left the VCR hooked up.

HOLY CRAP

I work with people who can't remember how to copy and paste text when they use our work station computers. True story. They also have trouble creating desktop shortcuts.

ROFL

i bought a sony blu ray player for netflix instead of using my xbox all the time, plus my xbox is hooked up to a computer monitor and its great.

I got into one tree hill. haha go go netflix! they have a ton of tv shows i never seen or heard of before and i have found quite a few entertaining. They also got some UK shows and if you like UK humor its not bad.

If you've never lived in an area like this it would probably blow your mind. In many ways it's still 1955 over here. I should point out that my coworkers aren't stupid by any means. A lot of them have large chunks of property well out of "town" with nothing but dial up service still. So...it's typically somewhere between 1955 and 1995 hereabouts.

Actually, I misspoke: I have three Sony Bluray players with internet access.

It's 2013, not 1979.

It's not 2013 here yet.

Where do you live?

UPS and Fed Ex deliver everywhere.
