I signed up for Netflix, in spite of their popup ad policies and my own better judgment. Why? Not because I watch lots of movies–although SAHMD might change that–but because for me, it has the potential to be the poor man’s TiVo. Only the TV I want! Whenever I want! With no commercials! The eventual investment will be significantly higher than just buying a real TiVo, of course, but I get like twelve channels, so a real TiVo wouldn’t be that great anyway.
My queue so far further evidences my dorkhood by being full of CSI: Season Two and Nova mini-documentaries, which is what brought to my attention the fact that only on PBS does Hitler get to be the star.
