First of all, for those who don’t know, Graboid is a website that lets you watch an enumerable amount of online video, which includes both basic and cable network television shows, at a price. However, their price tiers are quite reasonable, especially when you consider how much you might actually pay for cable or satellite television as well as premium channels.
The subscription structure looks like this:
SILVER GOLD DIAMOND
PRICE/month $4.99 $14.99 $29.99
BANDWIDTH 10 GB 50 GB 500 GB
MAX FILE DL SIZE 2GB/file no limit no limit
Obviously, this service could be very beneficial to anyone who has a particular show or channel that they love to watch but just not the time to sit in front of their television during the actual broadcast.
While you might want to find a similar service for free, it is also important to remember that you get what you pay for. With Graboid you can be sure that you are not downloading any malicious files. You also have access to excellent customer service.
Now, there are places where you can go to watch television shows and movies online.
Casttv.com has a collection of 'channels” where you can watch your favorite shows online. Typically you can only get a few episodes of recent shows, and access to premium channel programming requires a subscription
Hulu.com also has options for watching television shows (and movies) streaming online.
Worldtvpc.com can give you online access to networks from around the world where you can stream a variety of their programming
Myeasytv.com is similar in that you can search for networks around the world.
Xfinitytv.comcast.net, obviously, is a Comcast based interface that lets you view tv listings in your area, set your DVR reminder, and view on-demand shows for free (even if you aren’t a customer).
