Windows TV PCTV

Times are changing.  The internet has changed the way we work, shop, book travel, and spend our free time and now it is changing the way we watch TV too.  Now everyone is turning to Internet TV, also known as Windows TV PCTV, to watch live TV.  According to Nielsen Ratings, 48% of U.S. consumers are now watching some video online.  And, according to a survey by the nonprofit Conference Board, nearly a quarter of households in the U.S. now view television programs online.

Why is everyone switching to online TV?  Is it to cut costs, avoiding monthly cable TV bills or monthly satellite TV bills?  Or is it for the convenience of watching TV on the go with a computer or mobile device?

According to Satellite Direct, people are downloading their software to watch live TV for those reasons and more.  They say “Why pay monthly cable TV bills or monthly satellite TV bills when you can watch live TV using our software?  No monthly bills.  No hardware to install.  And we offer over 3,500 channels from the U.S. and 98 other countries (click here for a complete list of countries).  This includes all of your favorite television shows, news, and sports, plus free movies.”

They say their software program is quick to download and easy to install.  It works on both Mac and PC computers.  And also included at no additional charge are free online movies, live sports including ESPN, news broadcasts from the major U.S. networks and from around the world.
