If you search the web you'll find there's an avalanche of services offering TV for PC services. They range from really good services to well, really crap ones. Here's my 'at a glance' page with some main points and notes on the different packages.

Superb. Easily beats competing products. Lots of channels - that actually work, excellent quality audio & video. And a great interface. Add favorites, organize and sort channels. Includes sport, TV shows, music & much more. The best there is.

A good selection of channels and a clear, simple software tool. Slightly let down by it's dull interface and the lack of any way to sort channels or add bookmarks. But a huge selection of stations if that's what you're looking for.

As above but an extra $10 for a couple hundred extra channels. I'd recommend the Pro version as it's cheaper and does pretty much the same job.

Although it offers less TV stations than some of the other software, this software is still a nice little package with some decent features. There's a number of ways to sort channels and you can also bookmark your favourite stations.

While the access to hardcore XXX channels will appeal to some, this software leaves a lot to be desired. There's not enough channels and there are some flaws in the interface design.

This is not a software product, it's a guide. And it's not easy to use. Offering a limited number of channels and links to free resources. Not recommended.

No software included. All you get is a long, complex page telling you how you can watch certain video streams on the web. The worst of the services I've reviewed. Avoid it.
