Streaming Services
Online streaming makes it possible to watch TV shows, movies, sports and news through the Internet. Some services like Netflix and Hulu allow you to watch shows and movies anytime it’s convenient for you. Networks, like PBS and CBS also offer apps that allow access to this seasons shows (and more) sometimes as soon as the next day after it originally airs. Other options like Amazon Prime or Google Play offer pay-per-view movies and shows. To find which service is right for you depends on what you like to watch or what is missing from your local channel list. Multiple services can be used to achieve this and it’s compatible with OTA TV antenna.
