First, find a way to get Netflixinternet onto our TV like all other modern rock stars. I get the appeal of watching it on your laptop, but after 1. I want do when unwinding. The second step call up Verizon and simply ask them to cut channels out and lower our bill Hah As if it were that easy. We figured if we could find a way to substitute our showsmovies over time by using the internet instead of Verizon, wed save a nice stash of cash like many of you are already doing and have the best of both worlds going on.

How to stream internet to your TV, way 1. So off I went I looked on Amazon for ways to hook up my TV to the internet, and came across a slew of options. There was Roku, Sungale, Apple TV, Amazon Fire and a ton more which I eventually got inundated with until I noticed that many Blu ray DVD players now come with built in wifi Who knew I had never heard of this as we never watch DVDs, but if you can stream the internet on it at the same time while saving that money I was bout it bout it. And since I thought you needed a DVD player to watch Netflix, it killed two birds with one stone. That was mistake 1 you dont need a DVD player necessarily you can STREAM showsmovies through Netflix too Oops. So I looked around and landed on the highly rated Sony BDP S5. D Blu ray that had built in Wi Fi for 8. That was mistake 2. Watch The Land Before Time IV: Journey Through The Mists Youtube. Not because its a bad product or anything the reviews are great, but because IT DIDNT WORK WITH OUR TV I just assumed it would because why wouldnt it, right Heres our TV again in case you mysteriously missed it the first time Its large as hit 6. HDTV surprisingly enough, but it never occurred to me that it had long met its prime w technology. I of course knew it was ancient, but who looks at the  ports in the back when buying this stuff How would I know it didnt have the much required HDMI hookup thats apparently quite important with streaming and internet badassityI never thought twice, and because so paid a hefty penalty in both time and money w this lame hacking attempt of mine. Then there was mistake 3 waiting two months to open it up and try connecting everything. Meaning, I didnt realize it wasnt compatible until it was way too late to return it, thereby losing a cool 8. Of course, I can still hawk it and probably recoup most of that money since it retails for 1. Moving in the opposite direction hereBut wait for mistakes 4, 5, 6, and 7 first I thought I could outwhit myself and find a way to jigger around different cords and contraptions to see if that would save this debacle. So first bought a coaxial cable to see if that would do the trick the Blu ray and my TV both had slots for it but of course that didnt work you need HDMI Then I picked up an HDMI cord getting closer and tried plugging that into the DVD player which also connected the cable box, which then connected to the TV. Thats gotta work right Nope. I should have stopped there and ate the loss, but unfortunately I went on I wondered if you could somehow up convert the old stuff into the new stuff, and came across a handful of reviews saying you could by buying a converter doo hicky for those wanting to use new equipment with old TVS like DVD players. Exactly what I needed So I tried my hand at that dropping another 2. Mini HDMI to 3. RCA Composite AV Converter along with the appropriate cables another 5, and off I went to convert. That didnt work either. Though, I did muster up some resemblance of a conversion as I could at least then program the DVD player into the TV screen, however it was all pretty blurry and I managed to shrink the viewing size of the TV in half too. Damn. At the end of the day month, I was out another 5. So if anybody needs anyAnd here is what weve learned so far Do you research before picking up electronics Dont wait for forever to see if it works. Hold onto your patient pants and dont go dumping more money into something with a tiny of working. Similar to gambling when you keep waiting for that next big chance to recoup your losses This brings us to the cheapest way to stream stuff to your TV The kind folks at Republic Wireless mentioned they were having a deal going on where all new purchasers of their phonesservice would be getting a free Google Chromecast thingamajig, and they asked if I wanted to try one out and then do a giveaway Unfortunately the offer is now over BUT they say itll probably happen again so watch for it. At first I didnt know what the hell it was, so I Googled it and found this Chromecast is a thumb sized media streaming device that plugs into the HDMI port on your TV. Simply use an Android phone, tablet, i. Phone, i. Pad, Mac or Windows laptop, or Chromebook to cast your favorite entertainment and apps right to the big screen. Hell yeah I said. Ive been looking for a new way to stream internet on my TV cuz my dang Blu ray sucks balls. Send me one to test and then Ill give one away tooBut I quickly notice the plugs into the HDMI port part again, ugh Yet another time my awesome TV screws me Why cant I just be like everyone else and splurge on a huge new flat screen It would solve all my problems I once again tried attaching it to my frankenstein concoction of cords Ive since built in the hopes of capturing that miracle all gamblers hold on to, but yet again no dice see what I did there.
