[quote=Anonymous]I just looked into this recently.  There's some streaming thing out that used to be called FreeCable.  I forgot what the name is now.  But it's like an app or addon that you can put on an internet device, like a Roku to access the channels.  I think this is the link where I heard about it:

After looking into it more, I think I read that it has since changed it's name to something else.

They have something equivalent for sports called SportsDevil.

These types of things and options work better with a flat screen TV because most of the devices needed to stream from the internet only have a HDMI connection.  I'm not ready to toss our tube TVs yet  because they're still fully functioning.  It does look like the Roku 2 has the connections needed to plug directly into a tube TV with the component connections (audio and video jacks).

But I also decided it was kind of more trouble than it was worth at the moment.  So didn't really look any further.[/quote]
