Ya ok I caved and went to the site after seeing the commercial 1500+times.

http://localtvmatters.ca/

Is it just me or is this funny? If I posted on a busy forum that I was stealing satellite then a sh!t storm would ensue over right or wrong for stealing a signal.
(I'm NOT doing so but would love to, /End sh!t storm :P)

So how is this fair that they can charge for a signal they get free?
In fact we all get it free don't we? Rabbit ears still work here so why would I pay for it at all through the cable company? They shouldn't even be in the picture.

The lesson.
Theft is OK if you steal from everyone equally but don't take from the billionaires!! It's a crime!!

Looks interesting anyways so I though I would share :stir the pot:

Yeah kinda sad. I don't watch much TV so I'm actually using just the rabbit ears so I can save money. Been thinking of putting up an antena though. Saw plans online aparantly you can get like 100 channels. :o Don't know if it works here though.

My monitor is bigger then my TV so I just watch movies on there. :roflmao2:

Eventually I want to get a huge TV and nice sound system, but it's not a priority.
