An average American spends 16% of his time watching the TV.
Not a thing restricted to America only.
In other parts of the world also TV watching has gained the status of a culture - An indispensable part of our life.
In this article , I want to explore the merits of PC_TV over cable TV and
over the more recent use of a PC to watch TV shows.
Every one knows that cable TV requires extensive networks of cables-underground or
overhead. Its ramifications are confined mostly to cities. They may not be available in the
rural areas where they may not reach. For these areas probably Satellite TVs are the best.
Just like the radio, they are broadcast using satellites.
The only drawback with Satellite TV is that it may not work well in bad weathers-
the dish antenna may be affected by rain, snow , cloudy sky , etc
Regarding the pictures seen on the TV monitor, cable TV no doubt gives
Images with good clarity.
But PC- TV gives the best of clarity of pictures.
The cost factor also help the choice between cable TV and Satellite TV.
The costs of cable TV may be higher-the capital outlay being an important factor.
Also , the number of channels available to the subscriber may vary as also the choice of the channels.
With many channels becoming pay channels , the subscriber has to bear part of the burden of the pay channels.
Satellite TV would appear to be cheaper as the number of channels available to a subscriber is more.
and the cost factor lower compared to the cable TV-it is an one time cost for the subscriber .
Satellite TV -PC is by far the cheapest as its source of the picture is a satellite . The only investment with PC-TV
is the software which enables the viewing with great clarity and without any restrictions
on the number of channels. And it is an one time investment.
PC-TV has immense potential to be the best mode of entertainment to the public in the near future.
