    tomison25 reacted to KuJoe in Your thoughts on BLM?   
    Wow, without even reading your post I can already tell this thread is going to get crazy just based on that absolutely horrible poll. You list 5 options that reflect how bad the movement is and the 6th option is "other". That's a great way to confirm your own opinion by not putting any other options up there.
     
    Try again.

    Was in my final IT class in high school when my teacher was asking for topics to revise. The guy sat next to me said 'Computer Hardware'.
     
    Fair Enough.
     
    My teacher asks what item on our desks is the computer. Everyone points at the monitor.
    He asks where the CPU is, people were pointing everywhere apart from the PC.

    tomison25 got a reaction from o0Martin in Has anyone actually used Amazon Instant Video?   
    I live in the UK so I tried this alongside....
     
    NowTV (on demand sports and movies and TV)
    +
    Netflix
     
    Amazon in the UK has a slightly better library than Netflix in the UK in terms of big releases. Netflix trashes Amazon in the US.
    Netflix has the best library of Anime (Excluding Crunchyroll)
    NowTV has the best overall library in the UK due to it being owned by Sky, a satellite TV company in the UK which has a huge Monopoly on TV shows, Movies and Sports. It is the only TV company which gets immediate access to the latest US TV shows (Game of Thrones etc). However it is much more expensive than both Amazon and Netflix combined (if you include all the NowTV packages).
     
    Netflix is the best in the US
    Amazon is the best in the UK 
    NowTV is the best in the UK if Price is not the issue
     
    EDIT: Might be worth using a VPN with netflix. You can switch between the US and UK libraries at will and get the best of both sides of the Atlantic.
