*note: You CAN NOT use your internet to watch TV if you choose Internet.
You CAN'T find ways around it like renting or going to theaters.
The choice is NOTHING that would be BROADCAST OR ON DVD OR IN THEATERS, & no loopholes.


the idea of the poll is to see what is more important, the rules are there to make you actually weigh the two.

Would you rather have no TV for a year

or no Internet for a year*

Internet.
I'll pirate movies I want to watch.
And TV episodes. I'm already breaking the law, I mine as well break yours too.

The interweb. Can speak to other people who have TVs, they set up a webcam and stream the TV to me without anything illegal happening.

In steps.

Step 1: Find friend with webcam.
Step 2: Make him set it up so it faces the program you want to watch on his TV.
Step 3: Watch the show.
Step 4: ???
Step 5: Profit!

EDIT: I did read, and the internet is still what I'd pick.`

Wait, you are going to ask people on the internet, if they want to get rid of their tv or internet? do you not see the bias?

Your title and post are confusing people. I voted for TV, as in, I would rather be without TV for a year. I would go insane in a matter of days without the internet. Unless I had plenty of books.

That was one of my favourite episodes!

OT: INTERNET as I can't stand most of what's on TV anyway. Plus I'd miss all my wonderful 'friends'

EDIT: I selected 'Internet' as i thought I was picking which one I'd keep....

I'd much rather keep my internet as I use it more. The TV shows I'd most miss would be anime, and I don't really have that on actual TV so it's null.

It's a what now? Episode? I haven't a clue what you are talking about.

And I too would miss my 'friends' who keep adding me even though I have no idea who they are...

Internet, because your silly rule is a bad attempt to make this an even fight. It doesn't matter though. This poll will have inaccurate results for an obvious reason.


(You have to be on the internet to vote.)

My bad, thought it was a reference to a South Park episode

Internet. The only thing TV is really good for these days is the news.

And we can just pull up the paper to do that.

Guys, please read the OP. This is a hypothetical. Imagine you can either go to a universe where TV doesn't exist or where the internet doesn't exist. You cant choose one to try and have both. It's an either or situation.

And you cant rent movies or TV series either as a hax.

Screw your rules, I'matching TV on my laptop. The feature's there, you're not telling me what I can and can't do on my PC. No offence, OP :)

Anyway, I pick internet with TV online.

I don't even have a TV in my room. I spend the vast majority of my time playing FPS and RTS games or on random internet sites. S I would obviously keep the internet.

Internet, hands down. I haven't turned on my apartment's TV in months; I went ahead and unplugged it so I wouldn't burn any phantom electricity.

Of course, I get only two English channels from Hong Kong, but judging from what I've read on the web, America's got 500 channels and nothing on. Triply so nowadays.
