    Posting sites regarding potentially illegal downloading/viewing of TV or Movies on an open forum is NOT a smart idea.

    I use Hulu, Casttv, tv.com, and you can find stuff just by doing video searches on google..

    $20.00?? I use Netflix unlimited online, only $7.99 month. Pain in the ### (at times) when it throttles you and the movie has to reload every 15 minutes. Grrr.....

    Nothing wrong with the Netflix in the mail service, but their online movies can constantly require resetting due to Netflix throttling the streaming speed.

    I use redbox. $1 movie rentals. The have them at all the Walmarts, and a lot of the McDonald's. I've been bugging them endlessly to put them in the truckstops. If you want, go to redbox.com and bug them as well.

    Along with Hulu, I also use a service called Shoutcast. There are about a hundred different ways to set it up, I use Linux, so I use a program called "Tunapie," and I think Winamp is probably the best app to use in Windows. It's basically a list of independent internet tv and radio broadcasts that stream over the internet. They have channels that just broacast "The Family guy," or old horror movies, my favorite is the classic tv channels, that broadcast tv series from the 1970's. They even have a "Bat Channel" which plays nothing but, you guessed it, old "Batman" episodes. It really doesn't use that much bandwidth like Hulu or Netflix does either, and works ok even on a crappy internet connection.
