My First Week With Netflix Canada Review

The launch of Netflix Canada arrived last week and  I excited. It seemed like it took forever for Netflix to make it to Canada. The wait was well worth it and Netflix is even giving a free month trial. The sign up process for Netflix is very quick and easy to get started. Once I had my free trial I was able to start looking for movies or shows that I wanted to watch. The movies and TV shows on Netflix are a little older along with some movies from the past year. If you love movies then this is a great service there are plenty of movies to keep you busy for a long time. The selection is huge and you will have plenty of content to pick from. The price for Netflix Canada is $7.99 after the free month trial. Since the service is growing and more titles are being added I think the price is very fair. You can watch Netflix on a PC or Mac or on game consoles. The only console that did not get a Netflix Canada upgrade was the Xbox 360 which I wanted to use as my Netflix player. The new Apple TV will also get Netflix and is a very easy player to set up. Overall I will keep my subscription to Netflix Canada and use it as a main source for movies. The service does require a bit of streaming which for some user can get expensive if your ISP has a cap on how much you can download. If you want unlimited downloads then Primus Canada is offering a great deal for their DSL service. The arrival of Netflix Canada will make a great addition to many cable free homes. If you are using antenna for your live TV shows and Netflix for the rest of you TV watching you will have the perfect mix. Now let's hope a Canadian version of Hulu will arrive sometime soon.

Stop Paying For Cable Television But Keep Up With Your Favorite Shows

If you are tired of paying $60 a month for cable and are new to the world of alternative television, relax you can stop paying for cable. Almost every network show is available online many are found legally on sites like www.hulu.com and on the official network web sites. All you need to do is pick a show and track down the network it airs on. That's it simple and easy to find as more people cancel cable more and more online content is becoming available. Just a few years ago it was extremely difficult to find TV shows online with out getting shows from illegal web sites or torrents. Those days are gone and cable and television companies know consumers are getting smarter. The shows that are available online still run ads which creates revenue for the rights holder. This new approach deserves a thank you from consumers and I think supporting the sponsors is a great idea. The truth be told it does cost a large amount to make a television show, and in some way the consumer should show support for those who are making these shows. Once in awhile I even go as far as buying an episode through iTunes if it's a show I really love. It not about ripping off content companies, but demanding a fair price for access to television shows. If you love great TV its out there and for free all you need is a computer and you will find access to thousands of television shows. If you can cut out the middle man the cost of watching television show goes to down to free. Now that is something we can all appreciate.

Bell Canada Fiber Optic TV Service

The new Bell Canada fiber optic television service has launched in Toronto and Montreal. The new service is aimed at taking on the big cable providers in those cities. The goal for Bell Canada is to become one of Canada's biggest television providers. With the purchase of remaining stock from the CTV part of their business Bell will also be able to secure content for it's TV and mobile service. The benefit for consumers is that in areas that only had one cable provider at least there is choice. The cost of the new service is basically what you would pay for cable. The only good thing that will come out of this new service is choice to pick other television providers. The Bell Canada IPTV service is a solid choice for those who are tired of their local cable provider and want some choice. If you get Bell Canada's service then you will also get a bundle discount. We like choice and when it comes to television service we like lots of choice. Welcome Bell and please provide Canadians with affordable television service.

Netflix Coming To Canada

Great news for movie and TV show fans. The very popular US based Netflix service is coming to Canada. As one of the most popular video streaming service with millions of users south of the boarder excitement if building for Canadians. If you have ever shopped for electronics in the US then you might have seen the plays Netflix logo on many new DVD players or video game consoles. If Netflix can bring this service to Canadians at a similar price as the US service then they will gain a large number of subscribers. It was a good idea on their part not to include the DVD by mail service in Canada. With Canada Posts record for taking forever with mail it does seem like a good idea not to piss off consumers. I am very excited about this service and plan on being one of the first subscribers in Canada. The one thing I hope happens is that the new Apple TV will get Netflix streaming as it would bring this service into many homes at a lower cost then setting up a dedicated PC or Mac to stream content.

Every Major TV Show is Now Online

Gone are the days where it was difficult to find your shows online. The growth of sites devoted to linking to TV show episodes has exploded this year. These sites track down streaming video sites where users have uploaded the latest episodes. The sites where the video is hosted is a lot like YouTube except they are in foreign countries where copyright might not be so tight or none at all. Once you track down your show the video streaming sites do add pop up adds or some sort of ad before the video streams. The ad supported streaming sites have not distracted from my viewing and it just a minor interruption well worth it considering all the free shows these sites are hosting. At times I have experienced stuttering from some of the most popular shows especially on the day after the episode aired. It's a good idea to wait about a week before watching new episodes I find there is less buffering once the majority of users have tried to watch the show in the first few days. Overall these video streaming sites have worked well and picture quality is  not bad for depending on the source that was used to record the show. If you have know and good streaming video sites leave a comment and share with other users.
