What's next,

I had a rare visitor last Wednesday, so I missed the second season opener of Lost. I set up my VCR to record it, but somehow that didn't work. Like most people I only watch DVDs now, so I bought the VCR for the sole propose of recording the shows I watch, when I can't watch them. Somehow I never seem to set up the recording properly and end up missing the show anyways. Usually I figure out what I did wrong, but last night as I was search the tape for Lost (how ironic) I couldn't figure out where I went wrong. As frustration filled me I decided to check the Internet to see if I could watch the show from the Lost website. I could and did. This is the first time I have watched a show like this and was quite impressed. The thought accrued to me that this could very well replace the need for a VCR. Then I started to wonder how long until our Internet will be hooked right up to our television. I think all this new technology (TIVO/HD-DVD...) will be short lived as an online entertainment system takes over. Netflix could be replaced with an iTunes type of movie rental. I especially like this idea because I am very displeased with netflix right now.

Anyways here is to tomorrow.
