Need some TV

[thehstrybean]

So I had free cable (no idea, it's been like that for the 2 other people who have lived here as well), but yesterday it suddenly went off.

I live in TN, and Comcast is HUGE around here. I need something cheap. Preferably less than $50/month. I have internet now (*cough*), but if I can bundle that in then that's cool too. DirectTV & Dish both have deals right now. Any advice on what I should get?

EDIT: My internet is through my phone (HTC Mogul)...not the other way...

Hey, if you're poor, just consider watching what's free over the airwaves. You can also make a really cheap coathanger antenna that's better than most store-bought antennas: http://youtube.com/watch?v=EWQhlmJTMzw

Big old roof antennas still work best, but free TV rocks either way.

Through my mobile phone? I never said HOW I had internet, but I can see how the *cough* would throw you off...

Unless you are a really big fan of TV, I find it hard to justify how frickin' much cable TV providers want per month. You might be able to get basic cable (29 channels here), it's only like $13/mo here but probably more if that is all the service you want from them.

I'd use OTA, Joost, and other free internet services.
