I should’ve been too old to be watching SBtB. I am about the same age as the characters portrayed; for instance, in the TV show when they graduated and had their spin-off “The College Years” it happened to coincide with my first year in college. I watched that series, pathetically. And I’ve...

But where are your sports?!!! But aside from that you’ve got a really nice selection of streaming services. I just read where the regional sports fee was going up again with Xfinity. It’s too bad that you can’t get local market teams with NBA league pass and MLB at bat. Because with with...

A month or two ago I thought maybe I’d buy both a Roku and the new Chromecast during the ”black friday” sales. But kind of settled on just the Roku for now. I like that Roku recently added Airplay 2 that I’ll use for music. Maybe will get the new Chromecast some day just for kicks and grins...

It was cheap, glitchy, and underpowered to the point that it couldn’t deliver the 4K it promised. Anyway... I used to like Android TV despite it missing some apps that were easily found on other streaming platforms. And app wise Android TV has gotten a lot better. But I’m not a fan of its...

Looks like the score’s THE INTERNET 1, KAZAAM 0. The link seems to work for me, but apparently it must just be in my browser’s cache or something??? I’ve been outsmarted by a machine...

https://assets.blabbermouth.net/media/sammyhagarthumbsnov2020_638.jpg this link is to the Hagar pict, fwiw... takes a bit of imagination.

There was a picture I tried to link that would’ve made my bad joke make a little more sense. Maybe. But the picture didn’t post. Anyway... in the picture of Hagar he looked a little like the guy on the right. Beard, sunglasses. No hat, though.

You’re right, of course. I just assumed younger people didn’t care about Toto, which ain’t exactly the same as it not bering a classic. That said, I don’t even know if young people like Weezer.

I liked Africa as a kid. Still do. It should’ve been a classic before Weezer. But honestly I don’t know much about Toto nor am I much of a fan. I have a greatest hits album, I guess. Just started playing it. Can’t hardly believe the same band also did “I Supply The Love”. Which...

So the Red Rocker is saving yet another band from extinction? Cool! ;)

I've been enjoying Ride's "Carnival of Light". The very first listen I heard a lot of what reminded me of The Stone Roses. I've had Ride's greatest hits album for close to 20 years but never really connected with it. I don't think I'm big on the shoe gazing stuff. But I really like Carnival...

Indeed... it’s been a while. I was just browsing and figured I’d stop on by. It’s funny. I couldn’t hardly remember my password, but the memory muscle in my fingers knows the way!

Sometimes an album cover is so awesome that I want to check out the music. However, I’ve not yet searched this one out for a listen simply due to the fact that Wikipedia says this band may have had something to do with Wang Chung gracing the screen of my MTV. Dear God I never wanted to Wang...

Thanks guys. I think I'm willing to give Vizio a try IF ever I come across a really good deal. So... probably around Thanksgiving/Christmas or the Super Bowl. (Though I'd really like something before!). Anyway... I'll keep an eye out. Heck... Maybe a deal happens with the slightly better M...

It's not a big room, but the wall has the space to accommodate a 75" screen. It's just that I have wall-mounted speakers, which would fit pretty tight around a 75 so I'd feel compelled to move those out a couple of more inches. Not impossible, but I do kinda like the look of where they are...

I want a bigger TV. One model I'm halfways tempted to pick up is a 70-inch Vizio (E70-E3). I know it's not perfect, and I'd like to see it drop down in price somewhat below $1250 again before making the leap, but it's pretty much the biggest I can get in my room. And for whatever reason Vizio...

I suspect it may be a case of the good app with working DD+ being made available only to select devices, which makes the lack of DD+ on the Mi Box vudu app all the more curious. Won't go back to find where I read it, but if I remember correctly, someone had posted that there wasn't a Vudu app...

The bad: No surround sound via VUDU. Somewhat surprising since Walmart is currently the exclusive retailer for Mi Box, but apparently some guy on the vudu forum says he took a peek at the programming for the apps APK and said that its just a shell app that accesses the vudu website using a...

The good: Confirmed that there is an IR port. Even disconnected the HDMI cable to ensure it wasn't just HDMI-CEC controls at work. The bad: But the harmony 650 isn't quite as quick or accurate with regards to button clicks as the bluetooth remote. The worse: This thing just wants to...

Just a curiosity, but about HDMI cables... Are 10.2ghz data speed cables OK? Or should I jump up to the 18ghz speed ones? I want to replace the hdmi cable that comes with mi box because it's pretty short. Monoprice seems to say that the cheaper 10.2 is only good for up to 2160p/24, whereas...
