Tonight's discovery: Dr. Horrible looks and sounds amazing on Blu-Ray. The 40" HD doesn't hurt either. |

@cabri It's pretty cool. Still, I'd be right there with you if my old set hadn't given up the ghost. |
21:51 |
Am I missing something, or does Netflix Streaming not have much I'd want to watch? Gone through hundreds of titles without much luck. |
