But in order to view computer TV via the internet, you will need the following: a high speed internet connection preferably a broadband service, a computer with a RAM f 520 MB or more, a computer speed of 300 MHz or more, and a computer PC TV software program.

Another advantage of watching live television online is that users are able to download the web television software and then install it in several home computers for other members of their family to enjoy the free and fun viewing experience as well. Consequently, the home remote control wars that usually occur in the family living room will definitely be reduced. In addition, users will be able to save on the cost of buying all those extra television sets for different rooms in the house.

Unlike cable TV where you have to pay monthly subscription fees, internet TV only requires you to pay a one-time reasonable fee that will give you access to a multitude of television channels. Just imagine having access to television worldwide from the comfort of your own home. With internet TV, you do not only get to watch national channels and TV shows but also the international TV shows.
