There have been times where I have wondered if I couldn’t just do away with cable and just purchase my favorite TV shows from iTunes.. well the ones you can’t just watch for free online like on ABC.com. I however have to admit that I have never downloaded any video from iTunes. Actually I take that back… I downloaded an episode of some show to test my father in laws video iPod, but I didn’t even really watch it.
I was poking around on iTunes tonight and I see they have the original “V: The mini-series”. If you are too young to remember “V” than I am not sure that you’ll truly be able to appreciate watching it because it will probably just look like a bad bit of 1980’s Sci-fi. I remember being riveted to my seat while watching it as a kid. It’s basically about aliens that come to earth in search of resources…. with a slight twist. Anyway it’s $10 for the Mini-Series… they also have all the episodes of the TV show for $30.
I think I will try downloading the Mini-series over the holiday weekend. It would be cool to find a cable to let me watch it on my actual TV. I will have to investigate a solution for that. If all else fails I can watch it on the 22 inch LCD. Turn off the lights and make popcorn like we used to do.
Do you remember those air poppers? They had a tray to melt butter on the top. Wow they still make them! I might have to invest in one of those.
