Online TV Users Are Growing

Dale Miller
Instead of saying "what time is the show on tonight ?" People are saying "where can I watch the show ?" or "what shows are are on which websites". The time a show is on isn't as important anymore. It's all about what shows you like and where you can watch them online. As told by Lacey Rose, millions of homes are expected to have web connected TVs within a year or two. That's where online TV is making it's move because it is free and extremely convenient. We have the ability to go to a website scan through available TV shows, movies and web series and watch them anytime and anywhere we want.

If you feel like watching an episode of Friends on your 20 inch computer monitor at one in the morning, it can be done. If you feel like watching an episode of CSI that you missed recently, you can even watch it on your laptop in a hotel room .

With new cell phones such as the Android and the EVO, you can even watch episodes and live TV or movies while soaking in the bathtub.

Online TV site Hulu.com has a huge selection of TV shows,clips, movies and sports to watch. The site is free and now has a Hulu.com Plus option to enjoy the full current season of your favorite shows on your TV, mobile device or computer for a fee of $7.99 a month.

Clicker.com has more than 1 million TV episodes, movies, and web series in its database and a fast growing 2 million plus visitors. Clicker.com provides links to a desired episode, not the actual video footage. It could be free on a network site like ABC, NBC, CBS or have a fee for a site like Netflx. Clicker is like a TV guide search engine. They are also partnered with Facebook and they allow registered users to see the shows their Facebook family and friends like.
