watching more movies

Saturday,  01/26/08  09:40 AM

So, now that I am converting a bunch of movies from MPEG4 to Quicktime using Visual Hub, and able to watch them on my AppleTV, Shirley and I are watching more movies.  Somehow the subtle increase in easy of doing so has changed our habits.  Either of us (or both) could easily jump in the car and drive over to Blockbuster, but we don't do it.  And Netflix requires premeditation.  We've had OnDemand movies from Time Warner for a while through our Moxi, but all of those movies suck (mostly).  So there you are, once again technology changes the world.  In a small way, at least.  Although I must tell you, we're eagerly anticipating iTunes Movie Rentals on the AppleTV itself, I think that might change the world in a little bit bigger way.  We'll see...

In the meantime, last night we re-watched Under the Tuscan Sun, and it was fun!  ( The other night we watched A Good Year, and it was good - thanks, Tim :)    On tap for tonight, No Reservations...
