Featured Class: Streaming & Smart TVs |
Hi everyone, I hope you've all had a great week!
Every day, more and more people are “cutting the cord” and canceling their cable subscriptions. Instead, they’re using free or low-cost streaming services like YouTube, Netflix, and Hulu to watch their favorite shows and movies online.
Senior Planet in New York City will be hosting an in-person class all about Streaming & Smart TVs on Monday, January 30 at 10:15am EST.
This presentation will introduce streaming: what it is, how to use it, and the variety of content available. You’ll also learn how to watch live TV without cable and how smart TVs and streaming devices can let you watch videos from the internet on your television.
