Finally Cut The Cable! (Now what are the best sites for live cable streams?)

[shaotse]

Hey all, finally gave the boot to Time Warner! I got a Mac Mini and am running Plex for my Hulu content and other on demand channels. Obviously I'm covered for movies, as well as how to get my HBO shows the next day, etc.

But as far as live streams for espn, msnbc, cnn, etc. - the sites I've found so far are terrible, spam ridden, and mostly full of foreign channels.

Any resources/recommendations are greatly appreciated - Thanks!

ESPN3 has all of their broadcasts, assuming your ISP supports it. If so, Plex has a great plugin. I don't watch the cable news shows, so I can't help you there.

install wonblows, > buy playon @ playon.tv, WATCH EVERYTHING!!! through xbmc! playon can be selected, and used!

THAT SIMPLE!

IF you have a mini or other computer running all the time, playon will work, had to include this!
