Remember Bill Saunders?

He had a gimble mounted direct dish (maybe a bit bigger) and was able to locate all sorts of streaming video. He would feed it to his desktop and tv system. What was that James Wood's movie - Video Drome?

IN has great music too!

VOOM seems a way to go. I would rather pick the content I receive. The freedom to 'pick' the content is also a freedom to boycott content. I would rather have more science, cultural, surfing, music and histroy docu-mentary/drama. For example, the NASA channel - I've seen it on PBS too - has animated calculus, geometry and stellar mechanics presetations that dynamically express the relations in the equations. To think we spent all that time memorizing those identites without really seeing what they did!

But I have considered just pulling the plug - and using it for DVDs - back to books and radio - but their would be consequences - perhaps [even] a mutiny. And no late evening Perry Mason.:)

I called Comcast and was told that I am on an old contract that is not supported anymore. The new contracts treat each movie channel as a separate option, so HBO is one option and Starz is another. If I wanted IND I would have to pay a little more for a new contract, plus I would have to shell out an additional $15/month to get Starz back.
