We have gotten numerous questions from people inquiring if it’s possible to watch television on the net. Viewing television on the internet is growing more popular so we decided to write a quick article about watching live television online.

Part of the reason why more people are viewing their favorite shows online now is because of the drastic increase in quality of online video feeds and there are now a huge amount of channels that are viewable. It wasn’t long ago that the video quality was really poor and there weren’t all that many channels to choose from.

The technology has raised to the point where you can watch thousands of channels and watch all of them in superb quality. It’s incredible the improvements that have occured and it’s not surprising that many people are using their computers as media centers.

So how do you get live television on the web?

As you might have guessed, you need to install a special internet TV software program on your PC. Let’s go over a few features to look for when you’re looking for an internet TV software.

Naturally, ensure that you get a wide selection of TV channels. You should have access to thousands of TV channels including the most popular networks.

Another feature that I found is the ability to record TV programs. It functions like a “Tivo” – you are able to record whatever show you want so that you are able to watch whenever you want. Not every program has this feature this look for it when you’re looking around. The program should also have the option to connect your computer to your Television set if you want to be able to watch TV on the big screen.

You should also ensure that there aren’t any monthly charges. The good programs will only charge you once for unlimited access to their channels. This way you aren’t billed any monthly charges which obviously makes it a tremendous deal when you compare it to cable or satellite TV. If you see a monthly fee, look somewhere else! You can find a better deal.

Watching live TV on the web is a great way to catch your favorite shows. The better online TV programs will cost you about $50 for unlimited access which makes it incredibly affordable. Keep in mind though, it is very addicting!
