Watching TV can be vice, or it can be a blessing depending on how you use technology. When is it a vice, and what it is a blessing?
Watching TV becomes a vice when you watch too much of it. Many people watch TV because it's just a habit to them. They come home from school or work, and immediately switch on the TV without thinking. Then they watch TV programs that doesn't require them to think much, like game shows, and other pop culture television shows. Not that these programs are bad, but they are meant to provide entertainment. So if you need the entertainment, watching these shows will be nice.
Watching TV also becomes a vice when there is too much of it. This is particularly true for students and teenagers. They haven't learnt to control and manage their time wisely, so they spend way too much time in front of the television. Notice how each show says something like, "Up next, we have the most exciting show for you..." The TV stations know that it's easy to get glued to the TV. So they deliberately aired some teasers before the end of each program to encourage people to stay glued to seats. And it works! The viewers will be caught thinking, "Wow, that's exciting. I MUST watch this." And on to the next television show. Meanwhile, the hours went by without the viewing noticing. That can't be good.
But that's not to say that watching TV is all bad. The key is to be discerning when watching TV. Too much of anything will always lead to something bad. For example, too much violence, too much pop music, etc. So if a viewer spends two hours each day watching just violent shows, it's certainly not the same as spending that same two hours, watching one violent show and several other documentaries.
So you see, the television can become a blessing, especially when we think about how to use the technology to our advantage. Recently, there have been an increase in popularity of free-to-air TV, which is a system that allows the TV owners to tune in to thousands of TV programs. These programs include foreign language programs, documentaries, variety shows, game shows and many other interesting programs. Now watching a local game show and watching foreign game show is, in itself, very different. That's because when watching a foreign game show, the viewer has a chance to experience and learn more about the different cultures. So with thousands of foreign programs made available, it is now possible to see and learn about the rest of the world. That is how we can benefit from technology, and certainly benefit from the wide variety of foreign language TV programs.
Finally, when it comes to installing a free-to-air TV system, make sure you do your homework and check out the latest technology that is available in the market. Request for product catalogs, and talk to sales representatives. Choose a product vendor who is able to offer you great products at great prices, and at the same time, also offers great support.
