My first thought whenever I come home from work or class is to immediately go on my computer and log into my Netflix or Hulu account. All forms of my television consumptions comes from my computer. I can have all the television series or movies right at my finger tips. It's a really bittersweet concept.
A few years ago the only way to watch a whole television series in the timespan of one week was to either catch a marathon of the show or purchase the DVD box set for an expensive price. Now I can access hundreds of different series for only $8 a month on Netflix. This is a way cheaper price than any cable company can offer me. Not only can I access this for such an inexpensive price, my friends and family can too. I am fortunate enough to have my parents pay for my Netflix account because they need it and use it just as much as I do. In fact my family no longer has any cable subscription. We have do however have many different subscriptions to sites such as Hulu, Amazon Prime, and Netflix that offer our family way more than cable ever could. We can be miles apart and still share the same accounts to access our favorite programs.
It amazes me how much our way of consuming TV shows and movies have changed within the last few years. I can't even imagine how my children are going to enjoy their favorite episodes. How long until cable completely disappears because they can't keep up?
