Movies bore me. These days I chew through 150 GB per month and the lions share of that would be accounted for by my wife who watches online Thai soapies. She used to get them from Springvale on DVD years back but, obviously, that's not an option here. Online is more timely anyway, at most 24 hours behind screening in Thailand. It's also free. ;-) -- Xeno First they ignore you, Then they ridicule you, Then they fight you, Then you win. Mahatma Ghandi
