Sounds ok - Could imagine watching the mix of programs they are talking about.
The film festival films sounds promising...

Sounds promising, certainly more so than a dedicated home shopping channel (Settings > Channels > shopping channel > DELETE ).

Will TiVo users be left out in the cold again? Hopefully not!

Looking like a terrestrial only channel as well.




Generally known online as OpenMedia, now working for Red Hat New Zealand as a Solution Architect for all things Linux, Virtual and of course Cloud. Still playing with MythTV and digital media on the side.
