It'd be really nice if Showtime and HBO wouldn't horde their shows until two weeks before the new season was going to start. I used to watch Dexter and quit since they have no model in place for me to keep current without all the extra cable related stuff previously mentioned.
I also have a ReadyNAS duo where I store my ripped DVD copies on to playback on my devices. Having to dig out physical media and load it into a player is so 1990.
Microsoft and the Xbox 360 have some sort of exclusive deal to have Netflix. It seems that may be why it's on a Blu-ray disc. Soon as they are able to it'll be pushed out on some PS3 update.

I prefer to download my game demos. This is the combination of two physical forms of media that can be completely digital and available over an Internet connection. I guess I shouldn't be shocked after they started offering streaming Netflix on the PS3 using a disc.
Sony, once again you amaze me with your ability to not try very hard.
This is setting what it will be when we can listen to it in a voice that is a great voice to listen to. Technology will get better and we'll be stuck with books we can't listen to because some publisher has a bookmark up his butt.
I'm ever annoyed by the content publishers limiting what I can do with something after I purchase it.
This is the feature I was most excited about. Being able to buy a book and let it be read to me. I guess I'll have to wait and see how many publishers are disabling the text to speach feature on their books.
