With the exception of ONE person in the last ten years, every webtv poster I
have read seemed to be a totally uninformed out of touch individual that one
would picture living at the end of a windy dirt road without running water
or indoor plumbing.

I know that at times, we all have to take the connection available, and want
to grok this. �I understand that portion. �I do not, however, grok that
99.9% of webtv posters impress me as having a shallow gene pool.

Way to go might be satellite TV. I have satellite TV, there's both
free and pay channels, some in HD. It's quite cheap to install and
has non of the bandwidth problems of web TV, ie waiting to buffer etc.
There's lots of English language news programmes from UK, USA, ME,
Russia, EU, Japan, France etc.
Excellent picture/sound quality but 90% crap content. Of course.
