Free Satellite TV on PC? - Comments Page 9

hello im russell and i just paid for sat. tv and paid 49.95 and it said it cant be processed at this time i just need too know why thanks.

EDITOR'S NOTE: If it was the payment that could not be processed, then consider yourself lucky. If it was the program, then refer to David Hannum's famous quote.

I too, "jumped the gun" and made a purchase through one of these Satellite TV on PC before doing my research. I found your link about 15 minutes too late. Thank you for the article. Your column is definitely going in my bookmarks. Curious, what is your input on surfthechannel.com?

EDITOR'S NOTE: A quick look at STC indicates it's a nce search engine to help people find free video sources.

Nice little site that tells the truth about Satellite on PC. I couldn't really see how you could get a commercial service for free, and now I know how.

If you are interested in watching TV on your PC for free (the sort of free sites mentioned here), you can download a FREE, OPEN SOURCE software package called Miro. I discovered it with Ubuntu Linux. You can get the software at: http://www.getmiro.com/

Please I want you to send me a software that I can download to have a free satelite on my computer.

EDITOR'S NOTE: Read much?

I just tried PC Satellite and it SUCKS bigtime, no connectivity, rarely do you get an active channel, bugging s/w, no customer support a true SCAM , SCAM, SCAM.
Thanks for you input, they've not credited my card yet, but i'm disputing it.
thanks for the other channels site tips.

Thanks for the heads up dude.

thank you so much! I was looking for something to watch tv on my pc or ever to record my dvr straight to my pc. wow! I was so close to buying it too! Glad I shopped around first, and found your site.

hello i already payed once i had to get my pc work on and i lost it do i have to pay again

EDITOR'S NOTE: Ummm, yes. But only you.

Hey man thanks for the info.

they almost got me.

thanks .. i almost bought in to it...

A BIG thank you Bob, read your data just in time. regards James

Thanks for the article really helped me, but I also wanted to ask you that even if these online Tv channels are free is there a chance of getting a virus from them?

EDITOR'S NOTE: Not from viewing the actual shows... but it's possible that if you visit certain fringe sites without proper anti-virus protection, you could get a virus.

Too bad I didn't read this sooner...I wound up with 7 trojans..sheur.cfld...that'll teach me for getting it off of pirate bay...

Thank you Bob! Nice info, saved me a lot of hrs of research...so I owe you a percentage of my life really! :)
From past experiences I've learnt that in general if any site takes you straight to the pay site without any info or customer service contact detail then think twice about what you're buying, it's most likely a scam or a junk product!

These are all scams. For me the most sought after type of programming is NFL Football similar to the DirectTV package. There is nothing out there and I cannot watch my home state NFL football team.

There is a website named channelchooser.com that does the same thing as these scam programs for free. Hulu.com is also a very good organizer of free online videos. It is free as well.

Netflix is getting into the on demand video content. It will be interesting to see how that works.

Bob, When I was having trouble with my "PC Satellite TV" on the second day, I tried to contact them thru Google and read you. Thanks for the info. I will no better the next time I hope!

yes,free television for you, ripped me off,and never returned e-mails .wish i had your info before i got stung !

its about time someone showed the real scams and if anyone wants to see what Bob is telling you try out this site its free and around the world has lots of just what he tells you the site is www.wwitv.com there are ton's of free stations on there don't cost a cent but a lot is recorded stuff and has live feeds belive me these day's your better off saveing that $40.00 you really don't need to spend

I bought this software for 30 bucks at a computer show...it was called pc2000 then. It sucked!!!!! It gave me a list to free sites that I already knew about, and one that I didn't that attempted to load a trojan on to my pc...stay away from this, it is total crap!!!!!!!!
