Seems like this is the way things are going. I am able to stream just about anything to my TV from my laptop and Android device. All network shows, news etc. is available on line. I can use DLNA to stream the shows to my TV. Like having DVR without the expense of cable. Even the movie providers like Redbook, VUDU, Netflix etc. can be streamed to the TV. I think this is where we are going.
Problem is we are still stuck with Metrocast for high speed internet unless Fairpoint decides to offer fibre optics to residential users.
