I am running Roku, I have a Netflix subscription, Vudu for on demand movies, and Hulu.  Any body else recommend any other sites for shows/movies?  I don't torrent.

I torrent things, but not often any more. I find that Netflix and Amazon Prime video have most of what I want to watch.

Now if only they would bother to make searching through prime movies somewhat less painful. 


First they came for the Socialists, and I did not speak out-- Because I was not a Socialist.

Then they came for the Trade Unionists, and I did not speak out-- Because I was not a Trade Unionist.

Then they came for the Jews, and I did not speak out-- Because I was not a Jew.

Then they came for me-- and there was no one left to speak for me.

I just watch stuff on my phone for the most part. The news depresses me and most of the newer tv shows don't even make any sense. I watch DVDs of old movies and tv shows instead.

Grand Tour is an awesome fucking show. That's most of what I use Prime Video for.

Was that the SciFi Battlestar Gallactica spinoff, or am I thinking of something else?

Not too bad actually.  I am kinda impressed with Hulu and the number of channels the Roku has.  Just installed the ESPN app for the college hockey playoffs.

We had 'Sky' which is equivalent to 'cable' in The States.

 

Used to cost $80 a month. We cut it after 10 years because we never watched it anymore. 

 

 ALL HAIL UNLIMITED INTERNET!!!!!
