Here's a quick question.
My Father currently doesn't have cable, just the 4 basic channels, but he's been considering getting DishNet lately. Partially because he wants sports, partially because he wants Fox news. Now, I'm not a big fan of TV, I think that it's effect on a home is a net negative, in a BIG way. So I told my Father about the
Apple - Apple TV which, if you read about it, is where media is going. One of my favorite features of the device is that it lets you watch video podcasts on your TV, which much higher quality than the depressing programs on TV today.
I'm not entirely sure why I'm posting about this here since there doesn't appear to be any solution. I doubt he's going to wise up and start getting his news from multiple sources anytime soon, and there's no replacement for live baseball. I guess I just wondered if there's any solution I'm not thinking of for preventing my father's house from turning into Fox News central like his father before him.
Sorry if I'm being a downer on this forum.
