I am thinking of getting a TV now that I will bring to the dorm in the fall semester. Is it still worth it? Or does everyone just watch Netflix on their laptop now? I sometimes like to watch live sports and am not a fan of streaming watch ESPN etc…
I use the cable service on campus (it’s now free with your housing rent). I wouldn’t be surprised if a majority of people on campus used the cable service now that it’s free.
I use it to watch sports and for news just so I don’t feel out of the loop. I just don’t trust online streaming from sites like WatchESPN- it crashes way too often, so if it airs on ESPN/ESPN2 I can tune in on TV instead of hoping that WatchESPN doesn’t crash.
I don’t know if I recommend spending a lot of money on a TV just for campus cable or anything, but if you think you are going to use the free cable, no reason not to get a TV, I guess.
