ETA: I assume you chose an incorherent way of asking how you can stream apps like netflix, hulu plus, etc. through your tv over wifi because you are getting rid of your cable?
Buy an apple tv

There should be a permanent "cut the cord" thread stickied on here. This topic comes up every week it seems.

I have internet and an xbox one. You can actually do okay with a digital antenna and get some of the important channels for free.

Depends on who you ask. Some will swear by Appletv, some by Roku, and others like me by Chromecast. Just read about the features of each and decide which you want. I don't miss cable at all.

Haven't had cable in a year. I enjoy it. It's nice going home to quiet, turning on music, being productive, then whenever I divide I'll watch HBOGO or Netflix
Or brazzers.
Saves me money too.

do you have an xbox or a playstation (current or previous gen)?
if not then you will either need a smart tv or some kind of 3rd party device (roku, chromecast, apple tv, etc.)

If you live in an area where you are close to some network towers you need to get an antenna. With that you'll get channels like CBS, NBC, ABC, & Fox for free over the air.
Next you'll need something like an apple tv, roku, or chromecast. This will allow you to utilize things like Netflix or Hulu, with subscriptions of course.

Or a laptop and an Hdmi cable.
Not that difficult.

Exactly.
A lot friends and family think Im crazy for not having the trash box on my tv anymore, but I swear I feel my brain regenerating itself and my kids regaining their attention spans.
Only thing that sucks is sprots. But the roku has the SEC channel

What 10 channels would this be? Not the same ones you can pick up free over the air I hope.
