Specifically I'm interested in opinions from anyone on the west coast. I'm currently with hollywebdvd, which I picked because they deliver from alberta and most others are based in eastern Canada. The service and selection is fine, but it still takes a little over a week to get there and back...
There's also a whole chapter here http://www.salon.com/tech/books/2002...box_excerpt/?x
Some interesting facts like the xbox was originally planned to play PC games, and MS waiving licensing to undercut Sony.
If blockbuster does this permanently, they should implement a system of delivering stock back and forth between stores to balance inventory like libraries do.
It can be hit and miss, depending on who contributes, but I try to watch all the commentaries on my DVDs. If there's more than one on a DVD i'll pick whichever seems more interesting and hope I get to the next one in the future. If the commentary features someone incredibly boring like tim...
Once during a conversation with my cousin, who had it a little tougher growing up, I asked him what he'd do if someone stuck him up from behind and asked for his shoes. He simply replied that he'd refuse and try to fight back. For a pair of shoes? He said they're nice shoes, he worked hard for...
First I'd like to thank you for this great thread, John, and thanks to the contributors for all the info provided. I don't want to hijack the thread or anything, but I have a question that needs to be asked after staying up way too late reading the whole thing: how does someone interested in...
Some interesting info about OK (which stands for Operation Kids www.operationkids.org) is provided in their 'about us' section, including their objectives:
Build an OK Community of people who want better media choices in their homes and communities.
Use the OK Mark, as licensed by the...
I have this great disc but I don't enjoy it as much as the original fantasia. It's beautiful and scary, not watered down like everything disney does now. F2K has its moments, but it isn't as original as, well, the original. Sure, maybe we shouldn't expect it to be, but think of how...
Lately i've noticed my local theater likes to use the commercials to calibrate the projector. The first one will come up cropped or out of focus or something and it'll be fixed by the next one (or sometimes not). At least now they get butchered in place of the trailers. I'm sure the advertisers...
A girl drink is basically anything that a "casual" drinker orders and is usually all fruitied up and sweetened so to lessen the taste of alcohol. Personally I don't care what people drink, but I stay away from sugary stuff because it can cause a bad hangover if you drink too much. Smirnoff Ice...
One thing you could do is switch to winamp, because i know it doesn't do that. Otherwise, maybe 2 installs of WMP? I'm not sure if that works, but it's worth a try.
It's good to know that your problem is solved, but it's still possible to send a 5.1 AC3 signal thru a Live! value to a reciever, I just don't know why it didn't work for you.
