I am admittedly a fossil and have a very basic set up - non HD tv's (though both the kids have HD at their colleges), intermediate cable package (basic, sports channels and HBO (at least during GoT season). I don't use internet much to watch shows. Use OnDemand some. Use redbox a little but not much.

So, do you have watch on your computer via internet? DO you have internet hooked up to your t.v.? Do you use cable? netflix? Amazon?

51 inch Samsung plasma hooked to the computer so I can watch anything. Doubles as my gaming screen. It is a smart TV with 3-D. I never touch the smart features since I'm hooked up to the computer.

As much as I despise the resurgence of 3-D, I have seen a few good movies on it. I wouldn't call it a 100% gimmick.

The first Hobbit looks great on the 3-D tv. The bootleg copy of Gravity was really nice on 3-D. I've seen a few other films that I actually enjoyed the 3-D.

Watch everything on iPad. Netflix, Amazon Prime, and other shady streaming sites

That's my setup. Simple, yet satisfying.

Programming mainly comes from Netflix, Amazon Prime and some Free Hulu. Cox Cable during the football season. On the down low, Ice Films and Primewire.

I would say about 80% of my viewing is Netflix and Amazon. Just about always have something running on the big screen or my dual monitors.
