I cant say either way. True there is nothing ever on tv anymore thats worth watching. Except for a few car shows and motorcycle shows. But i cant stay on the net all day, i get bored. Same with tv, cant stay in front of it all day, ill get bored. So when i get bored with one, i go to the other. When i get bored with both i go do something outside, or go clean my guns. Hell sometimes i just walk around my 60 acres with my dogs to see how many deer i can jump up in the tall grass, or just go out and harrass the cows (which are not mine btw, lol).

I would choose internet and my computer. I usually only watch movies (DVD) on TV and the news and I can do both on my computer and project them on a big screen if I choose. I can also get the news via internet. So if I had to choose i choose internet but I am glad I can have both!

I do TV during meal breaks. It's kinda like ketchup - a condiment.
Where my practice gets complicated is if the TV happens to be on the history channel or the discovery channel or the science channel.
Then I may get sidetracked for ~hours~.

I watch tv out of the corner of my eye. Two channels only, Fox news or the History channel. My monitor is bigger then my tv.

I used to watch TV alot. But since I have had the internet I hardly ever watch TV anymore. Sometimes I will turn it on just for the extra noise because I am usually here by myself at nights. I have my computer sitting opposite of my TV so I can still see what it going on. There are only a couple of shows that I do watch and even then, I am still usually on the internet or at the computer doing something.

On the rare occasions there actualy is something worth watching on TV, they have so many commercial interuptions, I run out of patience and quit watching. I try to record anything that I like, so I can watch at my own convenience and zip through the commercials. Too cheap to get Tivo! So needless to say, I'd rather be on the Internet.

I like the History channel and science and documentary programs a lot but overall I am much more interested in the people and information on the internet.
A little ironic that most people who answer this poll will see it in the first place because they spend time surfing.
