Hulu and Netflix
Watch for free
If paying for TV or movies is out of reach for you, some good news for you, there’re free options. They may not give you the thrill you get from paid-for programs, but they are better than nothing. You can subscribe to free trials from sites such as DirectTV, SlingTV that offer a seven days trial and Hulu and Netflix for one month.
If, after the trial period you don’t intend to pay you can unsubscribe to avoid incurring charges. Another way to watch for free is getting a family member or friend to share their logins to paid sites. You can share with them on accounts such as Hulu which allow up to five profiles and HBO Now.
App stores such as Google play and iTunes have free TV programs you can try out. You can download on your phone, computer, or tablet but the selections aren’t wide. If your library has subscriptions from sites such as Kanopy and Hoopla Digital you can use your library card and email address to watch for free.
Cable TV for free
Cable TV offers different prices to choose from but if you wish to watch for free there’re legit ways to watch for free. You can use an HDTV antenna which unlike the former tv antennas it offers various local channels with better broadcasting signals. Depending on your location and antenna you can watch as many as over 100 tv channels for free.
You can use a directional antenna by pointing it towards one direction or an omni-directional antenna that receives signals from all directions horizontally. Outdoor and indoor antennas are another way to watch cable tv for free. The indoor one is suitable if you stay near broadcasting towers and outdoor ones work in rural or places far from the towers.
