More fun with shiny new stuff

So…I refuse to have cable. I refuse to use Netflix. I rarely spend money on DVDs. I’m always scrounging for fresh new cycling videos, and that’s how I catch up with stuff because I can’t stand to just sit and watch something, it seems like such a waste of time.

I have yet to see True Blood. BUT…I have a cool new computer with a 22″ high-def monitor and a sound card that could blast the windows out with just slightly better speakers. And I have iTunes.

So last night, I tried it out for the first time. I downloaded the first episode of True Blood from iTunes, tilted the new monitor up a bit and did my cycling to it.

It worked perfectly. Great picture, no problems hearing the audio! I think I’ve got cycling videos for quite a few weeks now! Because iTunes has Vampire Diaries, too. 🙂 (And Moonlight. And Blood Ties. I’ve only seen one episode of each of those.)

My opinion of True Blood…too soon to tell. Cycling is 30 minutes, so I’m just a little more than halfway through the first episode. I’ll watch several episodes to see how it develops before I formulate an opinion. But I’ll watch it all, because I can hardly be the vampire expert without seeing it!
