    It's not every show or every channel but I have sat down and timed it before. 5 minutes of crap for every 5 minutes of show, sometimes less. You're right, people do change the channel. Then they wonder why. Then their solution is to add even more commercials. Not even different ones, just the same one over and over. Idiots.

    Thanks Ducks, I will check it out. I was thinking maybe Bubbamarks knew a site that was actually live feed online.


    Yeah, bored to tears with Hulu. Some great B flicks and horrible ones too. :biggrin_25523:
     
    Ducks Thanks this.

    There's a lot of free sites out there but the sites mentioned above Hulu & Fancast are good.
    If you're looking for live feeds download the free TVUPlayer (safe) to your lap top. Some other on-line live feeds are Justin.tv as well as channelsurfing.net Don't get sucked into a paying site. Some are legit. Some are not. I can vouch for these sites that I use and that should give you all plenty to choose from. Sports, movies, even stuff from those wacky Japanese! :biggrin_2559:
    Just to give an example, with the TVUPlayer I would watch the 2:00am east coast feed of the X-Files at 11:00pm when I was on the west coast! Back on the east coast now I can watch say KNBC out of L.A. There's also special channels like the countrified channel, Blue Highways TV.
    And if you're a baseball junkie sign up for MLB.com $20.00 bucks a month and all the baseball you want. Since you're not paying that dam cable bill what's $20.00!
    Also you can go directly to the major networks and watch full episodes at their web sites.

    Now we're not talking HD quality channels here in some cases. Particularly if you go full screen. It is an internet feed and the viewing can be choppy and blotchy at times. But pretty darn good for free!
    Roll-on!
