i know there is hardware to stream cable television to computers but is there a piece of software i can install on a computer that has a tv tuner card, and have it stream from that over the wireless network to a laptop?

I found this on Amazon. I'm sure there are cheaper models, but it's a start,

Amazon.com: RF-Link AVS-5811 5.8GHz Audio and Video Transmission System with IR Repeater: Electronics

yep, you can stream it to any internet enabled device. it is pretty sweet. i don't have orb installed at the moment (need to set it up back up) but i used to watch streaming movies on my phone that were stored on my hard drive at home. pretty good quality considering.

you can "rip" an ISO to mpeg (or any other video format). whatever software you use to rip should be able to have you select the ISO file rather than the physical DVD drive. so you aren't totally out of luck, just time consuming.
