I don’t see the point of television these days, especially if you have easy access to internet. I have almost no clue of what’s happening in the world except the big global stuff, nevermind my country. We’re getting poorer, less jobs, yadayada… I bet that’s what’s going on in the news.
And I don’t watch media, I rather watch clips of movies I grew up with on YouTube.
I have a media PC running MythTV that I use as a DVR for over the air broadcast TV. Over the years I have been using it less and less. Today I use it for sports almost exclusively. It is good for things like the oscars too. Most of the time I am just trying watching Youtube on my media pc.
