Our Dish Satelite TV service is turned off, but there are still a few channels that must be considered so undesirable, they are left on. One of these is called RT which stands for Russian Television. It is in English, broadcast from Russia. On Jan 25 and 26, there is supposed to be a program on genetically modified food. No time is given for it, but they do run the same things over and over all day, so it won't be hard to find the program, I don't think. The title is "David Monsanto" with some other initials scribbled over the top of it. This network seems to do a good job, and are in-depth interviewers. (As a bonus, there are no advertisements for medications, cars or toilet bowl cleaners!)

i get a lot of documentaries on NetFlix that are neat. once you start watching the docs it will give you suggestions on other items just like what you watched. there are a lot of PBS, Nova, NatGeo, and Discovery channel stuff i used to watch when we had cable or satellite that i can find on there.

also, you can get a cheap digital tv antenna and i found i can get about 3 or 4 different versions of PBS!

there is also a neat little device called a Roku we've been deciding on getting. they range in price from $50 to about $100 depending on the features you want it to work with. you only have to pay for Netflix, Hulu and i think a couple of the sites that you normally pay for but you usually have to have a blueray device to hook them into a TV. the Roku you can hook into older TVs and still work it with older VCR and DVD players. you can also switch it to different rooms in the house.

i tried to get rid of the satellite and cable for years hoping it would get my dh off his behind to work on things around the house more often, but with Netflix he sits watching his favorite re-runs most of the day while he's out of work. now we spend $8/mo than spending $66/mo to watch those re-runs :rolleyes:

Roku gets some TV, news and movie channels and they are part of the price of the box. i guess you can also use it to get downloadable games but i'm not interested in that and i think that is the more expensive box.
