Three years ago we moved back to Austin from Virginia. In every single one of my daydreams of about living in Texas again, I was sitting on my couch and watching the Astros on my TV, not my computer and obviously I'd be attending many more games at Minute Maid. Of course there was the problem of the Comcast SportsNet Houston debacle. And now there is the problem that Root Sports Southwest is not available on the dominant cable provider in Austin - Time Warner. What I do these days is listen to the KBME call of game via the MLB audio. Ironically I watched more Astros games in Virginia because I wasn't in a blackout area. Also, I saw the Astros at Nationals Park in some really great seats behind the visitor dugout when both teams weren't so hot, but that's a different issue.

Finally, I realized there probably is a way to watch the Astros here. So here's my question for those of y'all who live here in Austin:

What is the best way to watch the Astros in Austin?

Unfortunately, I live in an area where AT&T U-Verse is not available. I'm considering signing up for DirecTV and only using the internet service from Time Warner. Is anyone else in that boat? Am I missing something? Have thoughts/feels? Should we be rising up

BTW, I'm totally capable of using a proxy to fool MLB.TV geolocation detection, but I'm looking for something less complicated.
