Any day now, I’ll be getting my new iMac mounted on the wall in lieu of a television. I made this decision with the knowledge that there are a plethora of ways to bypass a monthly cable bill by using resources on the Internet. Here’s a couple sites that initially come to mind:

• Hulu: Allows you to watch your favorite shows and featured movies in HD. You can even download a player on your desktop to make viewing even easier. Featured television shows include: The Office, Saturday Night Live, Prison Break, The Simpsons, House, and (my personal favorite) Family Guy.
• ABC: Watch all your favorite shows like Lost (HD), Grey’s Anatomy, Scrubs, Cougartown, etc.
• Veoh TV: This website allows you to do much of what Hulu’s does, but allows you to bookmark your favorite “Channels” and have show recommendations sent right to your computer.
• Channelsurfing.net: Great website for live sporting events. Cricket, anyone?
• MTV: Watch your entire favorite shows like Pranked, The Hills, The City, etc.
• Boxee: On demand television content that allows you to share, stream, and watch. Boxee has a social networking component that allows you to watch and listen to you and your friend’s favorite media.

I’m compiling a more detailed list and would love to know if anyone else has used resources on the Internet to avoid that monthly cable bill. If so, what other sites and tools are you using? Apple TV? XBox 360 w/ Netflix?
