Depends on what you watch.

If I paid $2/episode for what I watch on Miro and standard cable, I'd  
go broke with Apple TV.

Besides, I thought Apple's prices were $2-3 for old movies, $4 for new  
releases?

That puts them pricier than the more convenient movie rental place  
five minutes away.

Good quality movies, really good quality, will take a long time to  
download.

Then again, when I compare how much TV I watch and how much I pay for  
entertainment to what most others do, I'm stunned at how little I  
watch and spend by comparison.

I don't see ow most people have time for the stuff they buy, or how  
they afford it.
