I'd say this was a joke, but after Phillip's report and the mass porting of numbers from that phone provider I'm not so sure. Stay vigilant....

I mostly watch Blu Ray as I still maintain the quality is superior compared to most streaming I've seen, mostly in the audio actually. On the PS5 disc edition it is quite glorious. Best way to enjoy my home theatre.
Will probably re-watch a couple of Christmas movies over the next few days: Scrooged, Home Alone, Christmas Vacation, Die Hard and maybe even A Wonderful life. That sort of stuff.
same. as my inet sucks i would have to stream in low quality if indeed i could get even that. so bluray is it for me. i also have a denon 7.1 receiver with audyssey for eq and use my old 4x10" ampeg bass cab as a sub. all run off my home built HTPC of course. it does the trick. misophonia sucks, so ive been into home theater for decades, even before it was cool.

Misophonia is what drove me out of theaters years ago. All that food package rattling and low murmuring in the audience was just too distracting for me.

Is all that gobbledy gook going to help with UPpity..? because if so, you can count me "in"... In the past day and a half or so, I was starting to develop some contentment with $49k, even though it was mostly ONLY lower $49ks and sometimes bouncing into the upper $48ks and then just in the past few hours causing less contentment by dippening into the lower $48ks which started to make me wonder whether we might not never see $49k ever again.. .. but then alas here we are in the past hour-ish gravitating back into the upper $48ks... so no need to worry about seeing $49k again, right? Right? Anyhow, go gobbledy gook, go.. make it so... when I refer to "it" I am trying to mean Uppity. Well, I guess I should post random made-up gobbledy gook seeds more often. 3 cheers for the UPpity... hip! hip! ..............................(Wo bros, in unison)... HOORAY! hip! hip!......etc,etc (fun fact...every time I quote Jay in full, I get millions of little red squiggly lines under lots of words in the preview, I cant imagine why....) Happy Festivus y'all... And don't get run over by Grandpa Santa on a reindeer sleigh

MY first "home theater" experience was jaws back in 1987(?) on vhs a pioneer stereo with large old school pioneer speakers and a 25 inch glass tube tv. I used to build amps in the late 90's and early 00's I have a denon and 5 diy focal speakers along with 3 subs I cross to 10 inch subs at 60hz and cross to a 15 inch sub behind the couch at 35hz I got the sound good enough to realize I need to rebuild all the walls in the den for proper vibration control. I used to live on the website audigon

I read a great article on this subject the other day: https://www.slashfilm.com/673162/heres-why-movie-dialogue-has-gotten-more-difficult-to-understand-and-three-ways-to-fix-it/"A lot of people watch it on their flatscreen with their sound bar and they think it's going to be an improved sound situation, but it may not translate," says Sylvester:
Great link indeed, plenty of sense. I know some things about audio processing - music not dialog - and not a movie buff, but I nodded my way through it.

Similar here. harman/kardon 5.1 system on a massive TV screen, dedicated home-built HTPC, and a good source of free, downloadable content, streamed via locally set-up Plex client/servers. After experiencing the immersiveness of watching a movie in that system, I rarely felt the need to visit a movie theater, except when I'm with friends. I have access to Netflix via a friend's account, and, apart from some quality series, the content of movies worth watching is very limited. I don't think I would ever subscribe. OTOH, everything is available out there for free, and of very high quality, if you know where to look. My Plex server currently has about 200 movies in my "to watch" queue.

Feels like a bit more goalpost moving to me … the earlier statement he is trying to redefine was pretty clear: "I will call s2f invalidated if we have not reached 100K by Dec this year ..." (My highlighting)

No high quality screen/audio here, but I am a Plex user (and fan) too. I do have a few gripes about Plex needing to check the central servers even for local-to-local requests (WHY!?). Also, they recently changed the security protocol, and I can't lower the security even for requests coming from inside the LAN. So I had to get myself a firestick just to be able to run an up to date plex client: since I updated my local server, it wouldn't let the local client connect anymore.

I have similar reservations. Such things always end up becoming monetized and turning to shit.
