It's easier to get working than learning the correct spelling of "Satellite"!
My Favorite. The right price, great quality picture and sound, excellent software and great customer service.

This is the same vendor as above, so all the good things apply here as well, but a different package. You get another 1000 channels for another $50. If you like off the beaten path channels and sporting events. This is an excellent deal. Especially considering you only pay once. But, for me, 3000 channels was enough!
Channels: 4,000

This one has some excellent software. A little easier to use than the others. However, they just don't have the channels. They are cheaper though. If you're looking to spend a little less, and can live with 1500 channels, the quality here is excellent.

Yes, it does! I've used all three of these products, and they all work very effectively. I have my favorite (Satellite For PC) running on my desktop all the time. i watch TV on PC all the time!
I've used it for about a year now, and have been very happy with the picture quality, frame rate etc. Each of the products have their strengths/weaknesses, you can look on the left to see what and why I recommend.
By the way...unlike other cable TV scams etc. this is very much a LEGAL product.
It's cheap (WAY cheaper than Satellite and Cable as you only pay one time, no monthly costs), You can get an amazing number of channels...many more than your cable or satellite company can provide, you can watch TV that's coming from almost any country in the world (even Cuba!), watch all the big sporting events that aren't available locally etc., and it's fun! If you're a channel surfer (as I am), you'll be in heaven.
Also, you can watch this from anywhere you have your computer or laptop and an Internet connection. So...if you're traveling you can take it with you. I have an aircard that let's me connect anywhere wirelessly, so I even watch TV in the airport or the car...anywhere really. Very nice!
Pretty easy really, it's sort of like how your cable company works. Your cable company has a central site where they get transmissions (satellite) from all the channel content providers. They take all these channels in, and then blast them out over the cable.
This works the same way, except...instead of blasting it out over the actual cable, these products blast out the channels over the Internet where software on your PC can receive them and show the TV on your computer screen, and it's WAY cheaper than cable!
All of these products are a snap to install. ALL you have to do is install the software, and you're done. That's it. The software goes out and gets the channels, you sit back and watch TV...and LOTS of it. It's amazing the number of channels you can get.
All three of these products worked as advertised. I liked some things better than others. You won't go wrong with any of them, however. They all work.
My favorite would have to be Satellite For PC. It's the best mix of price, quality, and number of channels for my taste. That's what's running as I type this!
See my little summary reviews to the left and get one of them now. You can download the software immediately and start watching TV on PC right away.
