    Further adventures in cord-cutting

    I spend about a total of roughly $400 a year to not watch ads on YouTube, Hulu, CBS All Access and Peacock.

    Further adventures in cord-cutting

    We are approaching the point where we will be able to access most of the live local network TV stuff without needing a live TV package. I can watch my local CBS affiliate via CBS All Access and can get live content from NBC via Peacock. PBS also provides live content from my local affiliate...

    NAD M33

    Most new movies release in Atmos. Many of the streaming services are adopting Atmos. I don't think surround is going anywhere.

    "Classic" movies to watch with my kids?

    I own over 2000 films and I've probably seen triple that, so getting it down to something like a top ten is really hard. There is also the distinction between movies I really like to watch and movies that I think are in the "best movies" category. For example, I've watched Underworld a dozen...

    Theatrical releases... at home!

    I was one of the dummies who paid $30 for Mulan on Disney+ only to have it show up on Vudu a few weeks later for the same price. Not doing that again.

    Need new 65 inch tv.

    I have an X940, which was the 2015 flagship, it still looks amazing and I hope to get another five years out of it. The new ones look even better at half the price.

    "Classic" movies to watch with my kids?

    If I were making the real list, it would probably have a couple hundred titles in it.

    Netflix Raising Price

    We still watch Netflix more than any of the other services, so keeping it is a no-brainer for us.

    What are you watching via streaming?

    We have one episode of The Queen's Gambit left to go and just binged the first three episodes of The Mandalorian Season 2. We will likely start season three of The Crown soon.

    My Xiaomi “Android TV” box kicked the bucket

    The great thing about streaming devices are so cheap that picking one up on a lark is a completely doable thing. I've got a Roku streaming stick and a Roku TV and have had at least one Roku device at all times since the Roku 3. I just prefer the Android TV experience and feel like Roku's...

    My Xiaomi “Android TV” box kicked the bucket

    Google is replacing Android TV with Google TV. I have the new Chromecast with Google TV, which is the first device to offer it. It only cost $60 and I'm looking forward to playing with it. The main reason I haven't yet is that I bought it for the kid's hangout we set up in the basement, which is...

    Need new 65 inch tv.

    The Sony sets are outstanding and definitely a step up over the TCL. If it were for my main rig, I would definitely spend the money.

    Need new 65 inch tv.

    The TCL 6 Series is not the best set on the market, but it is the best bargain. You have to at least double the price to get a noticeable improvement.

    Home Theater Paint/Furniture Make-Over

    How do the surrounds work that close to the seating? I am looking at building a similar room in my basement and am a little concerned about that.

    HBO MAX Release Date Announced

    It is a money dispute. They do not want to pay Roku and Amazon what they are asking for. Just grab the new "Chromecast with Google TV" device for $50. It just came out, sports the new Google TV operating system replacing Android TV (it is just a rebrand and a new skin) and gets good reviews. It...

    Marantz SR-8015 11CH DTS:X Pro AV Receiver

    I've had no issues with my SR-6010 other than losing a line-out for one of my surrounds. I may or may not bother fixing it, as I can just as easily run the surrounds off the receiver.
