Location: Soon to be outta here:) | I have Netflix and Hulu plus and I really like them both. Id rather have those than have cable. If you don't have a gaming system or whatever but have a newer tv all you need to do is buy an HDMI cord (I got mine for 7 bucks on a black Friday sale) and plug it into the tv and the laptop. Then you can put the show on Netflix or hulu on your computer, but it also plays from the tv like you are watching it on tv. I love it! |

It will eat through your 4gig in no time...just an fyi...
We had it but dropped it when we couldn't get what we wanted. Went the Roku route and have Amazon Prime so we can at least rent the new releases cheap and right when they come out. What sucks now though is we lost our wireless and have to go through Verizon and it is horrendously expensive. Streaming eats alot of data so just be aware of that. |

Location: Gainesville, TX | We live out a ways and have wildblue wireless with a data limit of 15 g a month. We're still able to watch netflix and amazon movies on our roku some though. We might do a movie a weekend or a couple sitcoms and won't run out of data. |

Location: Deep South | I think the selection on Netflix sucks.
I much prefer HuluPlus. It has all the TV shows I like to watch, I don't really watch movies though, I couldn't tell you about those. |

Sattellite is different then cellular wireless. I have no idea how or why because when it was explained to me it went over my head but it is something about different signals or channels or whatever. All I know is that when we had wireless internet we were fine but now that we are on cellular our data goes in no time and it sucks. |
