Am I the last person on earth not streaming movies?
Seriously, I don't get the appeal. Ok, you get a big library... that looks like crap. Or maybe everyone is watching all their movies and shows on tiny laptop screens now with headphones?
Even on my "small" 40", streaming Netflix looks horrible. The insane compression, 2-channel audio... ugh. I have 7.1 surround sound... which isn't uncommon these days with all the HTIB kits (mine was not). Let alone my 92" projector setup. The home theater technology improves, while the content technology migrates towards streaming and lower quality.
What the hell?
It's like video is going the way of music. People are accepting a huge paradigm shift into lower-quality for the sake of convenience. And if you're not streaming, people look at you like you have 2 heads. "What's wrong with you?" It's like trying to stay off Facebook.
