TV is dead to me. I can't remember the last time I was so excited that something is on TV that I actually took the time to sit in front of it. I find it more convenient when the TV schedule goes according to my plans.
Originally, I was excited that Netflix opened their doors to the UK. The problem I quickly found was that even-though their prices were affordable, the UK Netflix didn't have any where near the TV shows the U.S.A had! Nearly everything I watch tends to be American. You guys have the best entertainment. :P
But yes, thesedays it's all about media steaming. Quite a few of my mates have built smaller PC's and use them as media centers/ streamers. But I wouldn't even bother making them, since shops have already began selling portable HDMI plugin PC's at a fraction of the cost.
