    Does Pioneer still make good HT Receivers? If not, what should I buy?

    That is indeed more than what I wanted to spend but definitely appreciate the info. I guess I better start looking into Denon and Yamaha. Music definitely not as important as movie sound. Want the best bang for my buck there. Is there a specific model you would recommend for a newbie yet...

    Does Pioneer still make good HT Receivers? If not, what should I buy?

    Hi all. I am an old time HT enthusiast who put it all aside years ago when wife and I were outnumbered by our 3 kids lol. My first pioneer Elite was a VSX 49 pro logic. A 5.1 got the same name a few generations later and I had that too. Went for non elite years ago with a VSX 9120 when...

    Help with 4K settings - My biggest fear came true, someone gifted me a 75” UHD TV

    Yes, I know I am being dramatic but it’s true. It sounds petty but I’ve always taken months of research to choose and buy a new TV. A very nice person gave me a Samsung 75NU6900 as a thank you gift. They knew I was shopping for a 75” TV and surprised me. return or exchange is not an option...

    UltraViolet is shutting down

    I am sure it's been discussed but now that UV is officially closed, any more conclusive word on when Paramount and MGM will join MA?

    Could the original, unaltered STAR WARS be on its way to Blu-ray?

    Hey I noticed that message on some movies and assumed it was a temporary problem. Are you saying some movies have just simply been removed from my library? I can no longer watch that digital copy?

    Could the original, unaltered STAR WARS be on its way to Blu-ray?

    Oh boy! I was under the impression it was fair play. That as long as they did not sell it, as l Ng Sam they were not making money from it, as long as I did not pay for it and as long as I owned the original HD BD Release then it was not illegal. Don’t know how I missed that. Sorry.

    Could the original, unaltered STAR WARS be on its way to Blu-ray?

    Would this be a good place to ask how to get this de specialized edition? I mean a simple way? I tried looking it up last year or the year before and went through the last and downloaded 2-3 programs to my laptop before I gave up and said I’m too old for this! I have the VHS and laserdisc...

    Star Wars: The Last Jedi discussion thread(Warning: Spoilers!)

    Have not read through all this but around page 14 people started talking about reactions to empire on release. Obviously my first thoughts were about how it’s my favourite, clearly the best by far. Also about how few people I really discussed the movie with back then compared to today seeing...

    Pre-Order DC Universe 10th Anniversary Collection (Blu-ray) Available for Preorder

    I don’t know why but lately if there’s is no digital copy I can’t seem to get myself to buy a movie. I can’t seem to buy these digital only either but somehow physical only doesn’t cut it anymore.

    Win an Onkyo TX-NR1030 9.2 channel Dolby Atmos AV Receiver

    Honestly, since the the third child arrived (9 years ago) there has been no time for more than an average of a movie a month OR LESS! Don't think I've upgraded receiver more than once in 5-6 years. Gone are the days of new TV a year and new receiver every 2 years... Would love to upgrade!

    Star Wars on Digital HD/Disney Movies Anywhere in May?

    Disney needs to buy Star Wars. Disney definitely has the clout and coin to own all 6 films. Why leave the first film in Fox's hands? Seems odd to only go halfway.
