Anyone familiar with Microsoft's WebTV

[Arkitech]

I just installed the WebTV program from the Win98 CD and I'm kinda curious about how it works. I can view the cable guide but I'm not sure how to view the programs. Anyone out there familiar with the program

I think you need a TV tuner card

isn't WebTV supposed to be on your TV, not your computer?

So you need a tv card?? I thought that if you had a broadband connection you could view programs over the net

WebTV is to get Internet access through your TV, for people who don't have computers...


If you want to watch TV on your computer, get a TV card...

WebTV is also a program that comes with windows
for watching TV on your computer..


Yes you do need a TV tuner card
