Looking to find a good TV provider for your home, and you're not sure what all your options are? If so, here is what you need to know about four ways to watch television.

Over-The-Air Antenna 

The most basic and affordable option is to use an over-the-air antenna to get your local channels. As long as you are able to mount an antenna high enough to get an uninterrupted view of where the signal is being broadcast, it can be a great way to get live TV into your home. 

One thing to be aware of is that over-the-air television is not what it was many years ago. You can typically pick up dozens of channels outside of the main four broadcast networks. You may be surprised at what is being broadcasted in your area already

Cable TV

Many people decide to go with cable television because they are able to bundle it with their Internet service provider. The ability to bundle services can help you save some money off your monthly bill and actually make it more affordable than other paid options. 

A benefit of using cable TV service is that it is very reliable since it is delivered to your home over a coax cable that is not affected by rain. You won't have to deal with issues with signal fade like you would with satellite TV, where the signal cuts out when there is a heavy rainstorm. You also do not need to have an Internet connection to have full access to the service, which includes a wide range of on-demand programming.

Satellite TV

Satellite TV is going to be the one option that is available for anyone across the country. That is because you are not depending on a cable company to service your area or for a broadcast antenna to be in range. As long as you have a clear view of the sky where the satellite is located, you can get satellite TV. This often makes satellite TV the only option for underserved rural areas of the country.

Streaming TV

There are many TV services that are streamed entirely over the Internet. The biggest advantage to these services is that you can start and stop them when you want, with there not being a contract that you have to sign. With no installation necessary, you can also use the service wherever you have an Internet connection. This means that you'll have access to your DVR library, live channels, and on-demand programming on any device, and can have several household members use the service at the same time.
