Q: I've been seeing TV commercials for Rabbit TV, a USB stick that supposedly provides free access to thousands of television stations worldwide over the Internet - including all the big networks, Disney and ESPN. Apparently when you plug it into an Internet-connected computer, a menu appears with links that take you directly to video streams. The Rabbit TV costs $10 a year. As a person who pays nearly $100 a month for satellite TV, I'm afraid this sounds too good to be true. Is Rabbit TV legit, or is it a scam?


A: It's a big-time scam. All Rabbit TV does is point you to websites that have video. And, with rare exceptions for breaking news, the big U.S. networks don't show live programming on the Internet. Ditto for ESPN, Disney and other top cable networks. With Rabbit TV, live streaming is limited to small local stations, religious and shopping channels. Repeat: There is nothing on Rabbit TV that you can't get by entering a URL into your browser.
In fact, you can get the same experience that Rabbit TV provides by going to wwitv.com. That's World Wide Internet Television, which, like Rabbit TV, has a clickable menu for accessing websites of global TV stations that show live and recorded programming.

I have never yet got a single one of those things to work ! I download some stuff ( long time) get an icon on the desktop, can never get anywhere with that crapola....Comcast has a monopoly !

Rabbit would be worth it if made the free stuff useable. They don't claim to give you live Comcast abilities. I could do without live stuff if I could watch old stuff for free !.

I guess I'd need one computer rigged up to the tv and another for surfing the net....I have that ability. My introductory Comcast rate ( about $46 month for the first year with expanded basic and HBOs ) will be going up a lot in a few months. I can live without network stuff if I can pull up stuff like old movies and classic TV like Taxi, Odd Couple, WKRP. Kotter, MASH, etc.

The only things I like live are NYY games, 60 minutes and that's about it.
