So? it's still free

I'm bored so I did a few Googles (haven't checked em all):

http://www.surfthechannel.com/
http://www.veoh.com/
http://www.casttv.com/shows
http://www.abc.net.au/tv/iview/
http://www.tvduck.com/

Tomorrow I might create a thread for tv show streams.

X-Men, well you could always download them via Usenet

^Solution.

Of course ever since I got a TV tuner I havn't had much need for it, but I have missed ABC's Flashforward and am currently usin' Hulu to catch up.

Well, they probably wont show advertisements any more then. Am I right?

They shouldn't if you paying for the dam service and it should be "clearly HD uninterrupted".

You'd think..... but then in the UK we pay for SKY satellite or Virgin cable and the bastards still make you sit through ads, I've always wondered why that is and then I remember that money makes the world go around!!

How many times to we need to pay?
If you have satellite or cable you are already paying, even for stuff you don't even watch.
Plus you get all the commercials, in a way you are also paying the price of commercials. You go to the internet, which is also littered with ads, and you're again asked to pay for stuff you are paying for on TV?
