No't'ain't. Content may be great, regardless your CRT or my 32"
flastscreen (equates to a regular 27" CRT except hell of a lot wider
- WS/16:9 vrs Letterbox/CRT/4:3). You got furniture with a TTL. All
that other "stuff". Think I know where you're coming from. You can
cut the "stuff" but only so far --- still going to need to know how to
build/run a computer and good. Basic computer does it all - forget
the rest of the "stuff". Build a computer, add to it a TTL monitor,
together, you're under a grand. Plug into you're old MacIntosh or
Carver amp. Instant sound system for the MP3s. Your rest, your
offerings are replaced by simple software - a slew of multimedia
players. A basic 250G HD holds 4-500 of your have-to-have movies.
What do you got now? Merciless entertainment - garbage in/garbage
out. No problem seeing what's good, and, guess what -- good looks
better than any CRT. As for the rest - I agree, forget the quality
and try and enjoy the programme.
