• Warhawk's remote thread got me thinkinking of another question: How do you get your TV?  Do you have cable or satellite?  Do you watch TV over the internet?

• To answer my own question, I have cable and watch it through my TiVos.

• I have Comcast Digital Cable.  I do watch a bit of television on the computer.  I like BBC on their iPlayer viewer.  I have to use an IP Proxy to stream it.

• I am one of those oddballs (like people who shave their heads) who does not "get" TV.  DVDs or VHS tapes, but nothing else, warm up my set, about once every other week or so.  The time once wasted on TV, I now waste on the computer.

• We have Cox Cable, which is ok for TV....   I really like their high speed internet service, though, as I'm connecting at 28 Megs Download and 3 megs upload.

• DishTV, had Cox, but after Katrina when we got electricity back at the house, the cable was working, then about a week later Cox disconnected everyone and never explained why.  They didn't reconnect for two months--that's when we knew that at the switch to an HDTV we'd go satillite--Cox failed to deliver when it could.  Now, we have more channels and movies than we can watch.

  I have Direct TV and pretty pleased with the service.  I had Dishnetwork in a previous home, but would pick Direct TV if I had to make the choice again.  The one thing that sucks with satellite is the lack of weather info like Paul said.  If you're a weather nut like myself, nothing beats the local weather channel on regular cable.

• Cable for TV, Internet and phone.  I use Windows Media Center for my DVR.

• Comcast - HD/DVR. Considering switching to FIOS to save a few bucks.
