Watch TV

Let's face it, when the country went HD some rural fiends of mine had a choice of satelite or nothing at all. HD signals averages about 50 miles. In case you do live within the 50 miles and have a HD ready TV, then buy a HD antenna for about $30 and get some free signal.

There is enough free content out there you do not need to download a client to watch video. I have listed websites that should be relatively easy to use. The exception (sopcast.com) allows you to watch broadcast content such as NFL games. I am not going to tell you how, use your friend google. But I have a friend of a friend of a friend who has shown me how well it works once set up.
