Russian live TV in USA

[Richard Robin]

Other posts have mentioned on-line streaming. I have used two paid services
with a great deal of success: russiantvonline.com ($10/month) and
webtelek.com ($15 /mo.). Webtelek has more - all the major networks. Plus,
they archive EVERYTHING for two weeks. The streams runs at close to 800
Mbps, so you need relatively fast broadband. On the other hand, the picture
quality is really good. If you hook up your computer to a TV monitor (and
that takes some extra equipment), Webtelek looks no worse than VHS. But
forget watching a show at prime-time on the east coast - too much general
Internet traffic.
