There isn't enough content on TV for me to want to view it off a computer. Making tv unavailable off the net is likely a bad decision as most of the stuff showing has some sort of advertising going along with it and I would imagine that the ad folks would start pulling their support quickly if viewers had to pay to get it thus the value of the ads would start to reduce considerably.
Cable and satellite service providers have made "free TV" not free for several decades now and not many folks still use antennas to pull in just the local stations but I suppose they are still available for purchase. Sadly, I haven't used an antenna since 1974 when cable became available to me. I cant believe all the BS on TV shows now what with more and more reality shows. Who watches this crap anyway? Most of them are nothing more than staged drama acts for abnormal lifestyles that I wouldn't waste 5 seconds of my time watching. I have about 300 channels from my Dish and 99% of the time it is hard to find 1 channel worth watching, 30 channels of online shopping, 40 channels of "reality shows, 30 channels of talking heads which make me sick to see these guys speaking as if they really know something about what they are discussing, then 100 VOD channels or more. Most of the time during the day if I watch tv it is on old 60s-80s reruns which is about the best thing on during the day. I do find some NatGeo programs worth watching and a few other educational channels when they aren't showing the same thing over and over for a month.
Winter time forces me to be inside more and watch more tv, but as soon as spring gets here, the boob tube wont see much of me at least during the daylight hours.
