For many years Television is the medium of news and entertainment. Some 20-30 years back television needed a large picture tube and screen to see the broadcast of television channels being aired through wired connections. Few years back wireless connectivity created the buzz and introduced wireless connections. Then due to the advancement of technology TV Tuner cards made it possible to watch TV channels on personal computer and laptops. It was a big achievement and at the same time the computer monitors were replaced with LCD monitors. And with the latest development you can watch television channel broadcast live on your personal computers too without much delay in streaming. Yet the development and growth for faster internet speed has begun in growing countries its looks like the future of TV on PC and laptops looks bright.
With mobile TV there is no need of TV Tuner Card and so you now directly watch the streaming media on your desktop by selecting any of the providers mentioned below. The online TV will make you rent free on TV channel reception since you are just paying your internet bills. You can also forget of having a Television with some taste to lose but atleast these can be alternatives to normal Television broadcast too.
