I very rarely watch TV anymore although it's not solely due to the internet. I have kids now and thus more responsibilities. My free time is more limited now and I'd rather spend it doing other things: playing with my kids, reading, and yes, surfing the internet. I've never cared much for watching TV anyway...unless it's one of the few shows I truly enjoy, it just makes me antsy. My DH, on the other hand, can sit for hours on end watching TV flipping from one channel to the next. I'd go stark raving mad.
