Why And How To Watch Cable TV On Computer

If you want to watch cable TV on computer, there are 2 avenues to explore

. One involves hardware and the other does not. Both methods will enable you to live cable channels on computer with an internet connection but they vary in terms of costs, channels offered as well as ease of installation.

The reason that people want to watch cable TV on computer are as follows:

1. More channel selections. Through the use of web, users can expect to gain access to hundreds if not thousands of channels. The number of channels far exceeds those that typical paid cable TV packages can offer.

2. Portability. With a laptop, users can stream live channels from the web anywhere internet connection is available. In cafes, shopping centers, parks or the beach. With the availability of 3G, surfers can gain access to internet anywhere there is mobile phone coverage, thus extending the use of the TV streaming software or devices to more locations.

3. Costs. To watch cable TV on computer or laptop does not cost a bomb. In fact, in the long run, it is actually much cheaper than subscribing to cable TV packages. This is because users are only required to pay for the software or hardware and that's all they will ever need to. There is neither monthly subscription nor pay-per-view fees. A real money saver.

You can watch cable TV on computer using PCTV device or satellite TV software. PCTV device come in the form of PCI cards or USB device. If portability is what you need and you want to avoid opening up of your PC, USB version is the ideal choice.

Satellite TV software streams live satellite channels without the use of hardware. An internet connection is all it needs. This is my personal favorite as I do not have to carry any device along.

In terms of channel selection, satellite TV software wins hands down with over 3000 channels to choose from as compared to hundreds of channels with PCTV device.

PCTV device will set you back by more than a hundred bucks while a good software will cost you no more than $50.
