Make sure you check availability, not just a hit for a show. Mythbusters, Mr. Rogers' Neighborhood, and Ask This Old House have a very poor showing on Netflix, though there are some hits. This Old House, New Yankee Workshop, and Good Eats aren't there at all. (nor is UCTV). Pity, I was contemplating this strategy. I'd be happy to dump the satellite dish and pay each of those shows' production companies a buck an hour for download, but they don't seem to want my business. If I do my math right, that's a margin of 400% for them - I guess business schools are teaching different things these days. -Bill ----- Bill McGonigle, Owner Work: 603.667.4000 BFC Computing, LLC Home: 603.448.1668 [EMAIL PROTECTED] Cell: 603.252.2606 http://www.bfccomputing.com/ Page: 603.442.1833 Blog: http://blog.bfccomputing.com/ VCard: http://bfccomputing.com/vcard/bill.vcf _______________________________________________ gnhlug-discuss mailing list gnhlug-discuss@mail.gnhlug.org http://mail.gnhlug.org/mailman/listinfo/gnhlug-discuss/
