Yes.. if you're paying a fixed fee per month for unlimited  
streaming, then you are good to go and browse and sample as the  
mood strikes. There is no freedom like that for me. I have  
better make darn sure that the hours I spend producing a dvd or  
converting a file for offline viewing will count for something.

There was a time when it seemed fun to see a film for the first  
time after an initial release and make it an event with friends  
or family.  But for me, I'm not interested to squeeze into  
theater seats and deal with the smells of popcorn and the noises  
of people drinking from staws and crunching their fast-food  
packaging.

My home is my theatre.  ;)  And I may as well make it  
worthwhile.  I'll take all the recommendations and reviews I can  
get for any film or series.
