"If you want to watch movies, we also have VUDU."


 


Josh Gilbert was tired of paying for the TV program that he wanted.


 


"Anywhere from 50 to 100 bucks 1 a month."


 


So he dumped his service provider and hooked his 50-inch flat screen to his home computer.


 


"I can watch all those same shows as I'd like to watch. When I had cable, I can watch them just directly from the actual computer itself directly through the TV."


 


Josh is one of a growing number of people turning their TV sets into big fancy computer screens.


 


I have at least five to ten customers come on a daily basis, asking how they can hook up their, their desktop 2 computers to, say their, television sets.


 


They’re tapping into services like Hulu.com for TV shows. It’s partially 3 owned by a parent company - NBC Universal. Sites like Pandora provide music. For movies options include Netflicks, Blockbuster and a service called VUDU.


 


There are several ways to connect your computer to your TV. This is one of the easiest, an HDMI cable. One end goes into the back of your computer, the other goes straight into the back of your TV.


 


One of the most common questions is about video quality.


 


"It's great quality. The stream's smooth, so there's no way you will like having wait to afford the buffer 4 out."


 


Josh is so satisfied. He says there is only one way he would ever go back.


 


"They made it free too."
