Which is your most liking method to spend your time for entertainment. I watch Television to get updated about the local, national and International news, although I can find all the same content and news details on Internet but I would love to watch it on big screen as well as it gives me a feeling of clear picture, where as through Internet I did not able to understand everything. But for searching purpose I use Internet. Even watching movies, listening songs, etc I would like to enjoy on Television not through Internet.

Internet have Netflix and that is where I watch my favorite shows. Also i can torrent my favorite shows too and hoard the episodes. Internet also gives me youtube which makes it better than TV. If I want to Netflix and Chill, Internet can also make it possible.

Of course today I prefer to the internet much more. I can watch any channels all over the world from the internet. And meanwhile I can do something else online. This is a better entertainment for me.

A television is the logical appliance for entertainment. There are too few decent programs available these days, which does cause us to search online for material, but even then I would transit the film or video to the television.

What Television gives us--local, national and international news, national and international .live /recorded games, movies, reality talks, scientific developments and breakthrough, the history and geography and other subjects and in short all the important aspects of present and old life of humans and others. It should be kept in mind that the programmes which are telecast in different channels follow the telecasters'schedule and the audience have no choice of their own. Internet is at your command and you can see as you like and put questions when you want to know something. Internet is our greatest guru i.e. teacher and if you are sincere you can learn many things while sitting at home. For study, research works etc internet is the indispensable asset to the net users and nothing can compete it.

I find it's easier to waste time on the internet, since if I sit down to watch a TV show, I notice the time when the episode is over. However, with the internet I can surf for hours without being interrupted.

I use the internet more than I use my television. For keeping up with news and other current affairs I would always choose my television, but for everything else I use the internet more. It's because I prefer watching animes, youtube videos, and online content over soap operas and other TV series that I'm more willing to spend longer times in front of my laptop.

I use TV for entertainment and the Internet for 'work'. I like to keep them seperate and think it helps me to relax by not mixing them.

Using the internet on a laptop helps me do things faster, and I can multitask with my activities. A television is not so user friendly in those regards.

I would love to go to theatres to watch movies. But seldom go. Instead watching my television in my living room with popcorn.
