My computer is my tv, no cable, we actually download movies on my wives phone when she's at work. Then transfer them to the computer. We don't have a tv with usb ports.

1)Try using a better website. I always have good quality on everything but movies that just came out.
2)Did he say he was watching them at work?
3)QFT
1) You can stream 720p - 1080p? What free websites are you using? That sounds awesome.

Just saying, I wouldn't be able to help you with the xbox, and usb to tv. Have you tried using a flash drive with the xbox?

Is it 720p - 1080p? If not then I consider it terrible quality and my statement stands.

The new super-HD that they recently released to all users? It's not Blu-ray quality but it beats any other streaming service I've seen.

Yeah, I don't think they've struck a deal with my service provider to provide "Super-HD" content to me yet. You're right though, I guess basing my standards on blu-ray is asking too much for streaming.
I'm just skeptical of the compression used to deliver "Super HD". I've even read Netflix is attempting to prepare for 4k streaming. Give me a break.
I find the biggest drawback to streaming is in the sound quality. Doesn't come close to blu-ray formats (DTS-HD etc.)

They actually recently released the super-HD to all users on any service provider... if you're using Windows 8. I haven't seen it, personally, as I use OS X. I feel you on the sound quality though. I personally still torrent most stuff in HD for any serious watching.

Poor Boy said: hes an alright guy, but he does put off that vibe. he holds himself a little bit higher than everyone else.
this is how the convo went... (right before i made this thread)
IBM GUY: any movies today?
ME: yeah, i have a few i wanna check out if i find the time.
IBM GUY: do you smoke?
ME: no, why?
IBM GUY: oh, i was gonna say, if you did, how did you plan on getting cigarets in jail...
ME: ...
1- He's fucking with you and thinks he's being funny?
2- He's one of those dudes who's never even jaywalked and actually believes what he's saying. Either way, his commentary does kinda strike me as douchey.
Within the last couple years... one day FedEx or whomever shows up at my door asking for a signature. It's just an envelope. And when I open it, I see I'm being named in a class lawsuit, where they're trying to sue a whole bunch of people for downloading stuff. I think it might have just been my IP that was handed over, and they were fighting over actually giving them names... but don't quote me on that...
...anyway, six months or so later I get another FedEx telling me that the suit had been dropped.
That happened once, and there was one other time I got a "love letter" from my ISP telling me that copyright holders were complaining and I should cut the shit.
So that's the worst I've gotten. And I download a lot. With minimal, or no protections. Who knows, maybe I've just been really lucky. Then again, since my first letter, I've gotten into the habit of not "sharing" material when it's something stupidly popular, that is very new. I suspect those are the people they try to go after the most (though not always. One of the ones they bitched at me over was some really crappy bombed-at-the-box-office type movie, that was a couple/few years old.)

It might have been slight hyperbole for effect, but you are correct. I think I am acquainted with, at most, a few hundred.
