    watching tv online

    what do you guys normally use to catch up with tv online? i'm just curious and trying to look for new sites.. i'm aware of hulu, and i know cbs just started to stream content in high def on their website, which was great for catching up with CSI.. do any of you guys use those? what do you normally catch online instead of on tv?

    Top Gear... Mainly because its a British program and I live in the US.

    Otherwise DVR is pretty handy.

    Most of the US national and cable networks put up many of their primetime shows on the internet the day after they air and keep them up for anything from 1 week to entire season. Unfortunately, most use a different proprietary viewer you have to download or you have to create an account on their website or some such nonsense.

    I personally have a PCI TV card in one desktop at home that I use as a DVR and use ORB to watch my recordings or LiveTV whenever I'm away. The nice thing about my combo is I can watch all the stations I get on my home cable system from anywhere in the world that I can get on the Internet. So traveling abroad is no problem or at home I can use my cellphone's webbrowser, or my CarPC.
