minus-square@[email protected]linkfedilink7•4 months agoLinear TV over an antenna? Well that’s only technically free. You’d need to buy a receiving device - that costs money. You need to watch ads - that costs time.
minus-square@ch00fOPlink8•4 months agoWell considering many paid tiers of streaming services also serve ads, I consider it free-er than that. Also, most of the hardware is already inside your TV. You just need a $20 antenna.
minus-square@[email protected]linkfedilink6•4 months agoI have no TV. I watch all my movies and series via a big PC screen which has no TV functionality.
minus-square@ch00fOPlink4•4 months agoAh. Well if your PC is static, a USB tuner isn’t too much. Plus then you have a built-in DVR.
