Watching a live performance such as a play, concert, or sporting event is more enjoyable than watching the same event on television. To what extent do you agree or disagree?

However

, I believe the high prices

pay to see

such

shows in person do not always guarantee better quality and that televised

events

are actually more worth watching than we give them credit for. In many ways,

people

who sit at

home

and watch

TV

generally have a more enjoyable

overall

experience. Since it is their own

home

, they can stretch their legs or even lie down to watch the

show

or the game being broadcast, unlike those witnessing the same event in crowded

Besides

however

, I highly doubt that it is how I would feel if I ever get the chance to set foot in

such

places. First of all, not everyone can afford or are early enough to buy VIP seats that give them a good view of what is going to happen on the stage or in the field.

Secondly

, even if the joint bustling group reaction to a

show

or game can somehow add to each individual's experience, it simultaneously takes away the focus of those who are trying to understand what is going on, and

this

is especially true for sports matches where watching them live at the arena means no expert commentary will be provided to help spectators follow.

To conclude

, I believe those who choose to attend live

events

can have a good time in some way, but if

people

truly want to make the most out of their experience with a music

show

, a sporting match or a drama production, it is recommended that they watch them through the screen of the television in the comfort of their own

home

where they have the absolute freedom in enjoying the

show

the way they please, without having to spend a single penny.
