[BITList] more tv - www

[FS]

Colin we like The Closer and NCIS and as we are always a season behind 
its handy to have a sneaky look, other than that except for a few 
british or foreign shows our free to air TV is mostly unwatchable, and 
cable is utter rubbish and I wouldn't waste my money on it most of what 
they serve up can be found else where for free with a bit of hunting 
around, I have set up a NAS unit with all our videos etc. on it which 
saves having to find and load the videos, photos,etc. means my wife can 
watch from where ever she happens to be which helps keep me out of trouble
