I'll stick with Shaw Direct for now. I need live (OK, a few seconds of delay, but close enough for my needs) business channels on the road for market and commodity prices in real time. I don't record, and I'm not a prime time comedy/drama TV watcher, except sometimes years later long after the shows are canceled or retired. I also like maybe an occasional sports event live, and live news feeds as well. As far as I know, I can't get real time live channels online via streaming. Yet?
"Wrong" you can get live TV on streaming, even ESPN has gone streaming, streaming channels are growing daily, in fact many local news stations are now streaming and major news stations are streaming, I can be any where in the world and still watch 2 local news channels from Las Vegas where I live and they load new content hourly..
Best part is I don't have to be at the TV to see what is on the news at a certain time, when they upload the content it will be there for me to see at anytime.
Streaming is the new better cheaper way..

Should have said, "I can't get the exact few channels I need on live stream yet.". Not without paying a fortune up here for what you get for $50/month. Then be able to "port" them south of the border with me when I'm out of country. (see my signature) We don't have "unlimited internet with international roaming" up here in our igloos yet. Might never have, if the CRTC allows our ISPs to run wild on us by over charging us for stuff. Our best plan is something like $50/month for up to 5 GB of data, with financially punitive overage charges. Add some roaming and I'm broke in a week of use. No idea what "G" that's at, either. Probably 3 or 4. Not exactly "unlimited", eh?
