While thinking of options to trim my monthly costs of living, Internet TV came to mind. However, I don't know much about it.

Does anyone here watch TV throught the internet?
Is it possible to connect my computer to my TV so that I can watch it on my TV?
What is the best service out there (the one with lowest price out of the ones with greatest value)?

What I do is.... have my xbox360 hooked up to my computer network (it's a standard, easy to use option) and watch all my fav shows/movies that I download using Bit Torrent. They come in in full quality and look great on my bigscreen.

You'd need a graphics card with a TV-OUT output.

But I think you're talking about IPTV. Typically they give you a box which you just connect to TV and phone outlet and it does the rest.

I don't follow IPTV providers in Vancouver so I can't give you advice on that. I think that Telus offers it but who else I don't know.
