Rent videos, or DVDs. you're right tee, there are other choices for video/radio entertainment, notice tho I said no other choice in cabletv on an older tv without digital tuning, you can get 6 channels in london with just a regular tv antenna (cfpl london vhf10/cfmt toronto uhf 69/tvo uhf 18/global vhf 6/ckco vhf 13/city tv toronto uhf 31)... reception varies of course with how close the tv is to the window, what buildings are around you, etc if you;re lucky enough to live in toronto, you have much better reception and channels cable should be free. All the ads are insane. You can get free internet service on a pc if you watch some ads, and they dont take up the whole screen for 1/4 of the time you;re on the net!
