So in our fight to get off comcast services, we’ve made another step to getting completely to free IPTV.

Downgraded to the basic $12 package and threw my new $265 refurb dell tower behind the flat screen and am using the following:

Netflix Watch Now (yea totally worth it.)
VLC + 1 TB NAS w/ movies and media on it
Itunes (vid podcasts / rentals)
Hulu / My Media Player
Joost (getting better!)
Veoh (still awesome)
Babelgum (mehhh)
Miro (still playing with it)
Moviesister.com + Movietvonline.com (dont download, watch)
TidalTV (meh)
Orb for remote viewing (absolute must)
Tight VNC for remote control via ipod touch
Slingbox

+ wireless keyboard / mouse = media happiness

It’s awesome. Yea, theres not a program that i have found yet that can aggregate all these programs, but its a really great alternative, i don’t miss cable at all.

I wish there were more plugins for XBMC so i could use that more. This is taking the place of the xbox right now.

There is a lot of programming out there, you don’t need your cable company, they need you.
