So far, so good

So far so good on kicking cable to the curb.

I must say, we are not totally without television. We have NetFlix shown on media players. I thought that live would be rough. Not so much.

The kids have awesome shows to watch. Educational as well as movies and shows that I grew up with. I am really enjoying it.

SD and I have watched the entire first season of Prison Break, which is pretty suspenseful.

So on to how we did it....

We bought media players. They are just what they say. MEDIA+PLAYER= Plays your media. Movies, photos and videos that you have made on your camcorder.

The first one that we bought was a Sony Media Player. I happen to like this one the best because it allows for so much more. Hulu Plus and Netflix with a couple other programs I have never heard of. Pretty simple to use and of course I like that.

We recently got a WDTV Live Plus this is basically the exact same thing. Has Netflix, no Hulu Plus but it does have Facebook, Pandora, some podcasts and maybe a few other built in programs. Only draw back about this one is it does not have WIFI built in, we had to buy an adaptor for that.

Both of these have remote apps for our Android phones :) Major plus with children's hands around who take them :)

Overall I am very happy with my decision to not to pay the cable company anymore money then I already do for internet :) It was a good decision and much less junk on my tv :)
