i'm on 3g, so have always had more pvr space than bandwidth. (he says with 140 unheard episodes of front row taking up space)

And no broadband? koogs! I never knew the digital divide extended quite so far!

I've been in a vacation rental without internet for a week and omg, cheap TVs are terrible to watch and so is actual TV when you don't have any streaming/iPlayer etc. I tried to switch of all the motion fiddling settings and it still looked horrible.Hopefully we won't need a new TV for a while - drove quite a way to get the last decent plasma one we could find, probably around 8 years ago tho.

New nice TVs at a reasonable price are among the best buys for the buck. It's the age of miracles.

Literally a couple of months into the pandemic my flatscreen fritzed and I ordered a new one thinking it would be a replacement, but it ended up being even bigger, which, thanks. (55" Vizio) Combined that with a new Sony 4K/Bluray player with modifications to play all BD regions and will never look back.

How’s the sound from the tv speaker? (I don’t use external speakers as I have haring damage and I always find them too abrasive.)

From mine? Quite good I think!

My setup is upthread. TV speaker is permanently off. I have optical out to a 3.0 system and it sounds great. The centre speaker changes a lot. Before I just had R and L and everything went through those. Now with a centre speaker the R and L become more kind of ambient atmospheric sources (i’m guessing what would be coming out of rear speakers is getting mixed into them since I have no rear speakers? Or possibly I’m just losing that rear speaker information. I’ve never been clear on that)
