Why Should You Stream?

Streaming has become one of the most value, cost saving technology that I have ever seen! The process of "live streaming" involves a camera for the media, an encoder to digitize the content, a media publisher where the streams are made available to potential end-users and a content delivery network, such as NetFlix to distribute and deliver the content. The media can then be viewed by the end-user, you, live.

Of course technology has allowed us more than one way to enjoy "live streaming". There are now "boxes" that hookup directly to your television to make it internet capable, thus allowing you to stream movies, videos, etc. to your television. In other words, your television doesn't necessarily have to be internet enabled for streaming. The gaming industry has also got its claws into this new technology by allowing streaming through their consoles, such as Wii and XBox.

It seems as thought this new trend in that way we watch television has and will explode in the next coming years. Especially because of the way our economic status is. People are looking for ways to cut costs everywhere, well, why not with their most used activity of the day, watching television?

The big cable companies have been getting your hard earned money for years! Competition is a good thing. It's what we base our country on! Why would you want to pay hundreds of dollars for something you can get for only $7.99 month? Your probably asking, well, what about the quality? There must be some sort of a catch? I can tell you from personal experience, that the quality in some cases is even better than cable or satellite television.

Of course there are some draw backs to streaming. Of course there are going to be draw backs for cable and satellite as well. However, the draw back has nothing to do with the price! There might be instances where the connectivity is lost and what's called "re-buffering" occurs, so there is a slight interruption in viewing. Simple fix, just either wait for it to re-buffer or try to re-connect.

The bottom-line is why not take advantage of this type of technology and stop paying those high monthly cable bills? The technology is here for everyone to use. You are only missing out if you don't know about it! I have been very happy with streaming and the financial benefit it provides me. The satisfaction I get every month not having to worry about paying hundreds of dollars for me and my son to enjoy watching television is better than a slice of pie! Well, somewhat.
