  9. Re:For most people - yes on Blockbuster To Close Remaining US Locations · · Score: 1

    that is interesting and good info. For me most movies i can wait till they air on cable but once in a while if i think its worth it, i will buy them rather then spend the money at the theater.
    my ISP has BW limits but their ondemand does not count for it. but even then i notice a lot of glitches (audio/video) and the in ablility to skip chapters or go back and quick re-view a section really bites. Does netflix allow you to skip around the movie.

    agreed, i don't have exact numbers as for some reason no one keeps such info ;)
    however my 06 s4 did little over 80 miles at 135 (average) before i stopped to get gas. tank wasn't full but pretty close to start and it was a little less than quarter full at stop. so maybe 90 miles in that one specific example.
    at 100 it went for over 200 miles so a pretty sharp drop...
