Watching tv on your pc

[Tommy Boy]

Does anybody know about watching tv on your pc? The programs that say they are good and offer thousands of channels, are the channels live, just as if you were actually watching it on tv? Anyone know?

I'd assume it'll be similar to this service.

You can also get a TV controller card and hook up to your existing cable to watch TV on your comp.

I'm looking for online streaming stuff.

I've used Hulu. It's pretty cool and has some good programming available.

It's not live though, I'm looking for something with live streams that you can watch just as if you were sitting in front of the tv, live network programming like the speed channel.

i know of 2 programs that stream UK tv, but not sure if they will work outside the UK, and if you would even want them

Wouldn't it be better to just get a TV tuner or do you not have cable or something?

Yeah, I do, I was just looking for something that would let me watch something that is going on right now and is being broadcast live on tv, and watch it on my laptop so I wouldn't bother the other people in the house. But it's almost over and it's not a big deal anymore.
