Viewing Live Sports With TV On PC

By Chris Bishop

It's well-documented that Americans are heavy users of the internet and that it has become the de facto source of information for the majority of them. Those surveyed would also pick internet over TV. Then again, Internet streaming video, virtually the sole alternative to traditional television, brings both. It already accounts for a quarter of total television viewership, dwarfing paid downloads, VOD (video on demand) and mobile viewing. Yes, Free TV on PC is on its way, big time!

Actually, Internet TV is nothing new. It's just that supporting infrastructure had not been in its favor in the early days. Conditions have advanced by heaps by now: broadband access, power PCs, super-sized storage and open hardware, software and networking. On top of it, internet user base volume has also long surpassed the critical mass level. The web is clearly rich for the picking by many an industry, not least Television.

There is currently a variety of online television most prominent of which are Internet TV (ITV), Internet Protocol TV (IPTV), Broadband TV and User Generated Content TV (UGC TV). Internet TV is the prime favorite as it's free and unrestricted in both access and distribution. IPTV is quality but generally fee-based or contracted while Broadband TV is too geeky for the larger audience and UGC TV programming (restricted to clips) are inherently never full-fledged TV.

The appeal of distributing television programming through the internet is unquestionable. Take Watch TV On Computer for instance. From the providers' standpoint, it's inexpensive, quick-to-market, has boundless reach and advertising revenue potential or is just simply good advertising itself. For the viewers, the benefits are even more clear-cut, with it being free of charge, global, extensive variety and the ultimate combo of the two greatest favorites, TV and Internet.

Having TV on PC is not only practical, it is also logical. Considering the occupation of time by each separately in modern lifestyle, it's arguably synergistic to have them in a two-in-one set-up. Not that the required infrastructure and other necessities are not already in place anyway, exception is a home nowadays in the first and developing world without a PC hooked up to broadband internet.

Internet TV is on a roll. Tons of Free TV On PC is readily found on any of the major search engines. The trick is to be able to search and zero in on those of your choice and interest. Viewers are prone to get lost amidst the abundance of free online programming but for some specialized software that are dedicated to gather the cream amongst them for your selection. These proprietary computer programs are not free but the right ones are well worth the money.
