Why I love the net (apart from you lot)

Thats the whole of BSG series 3 downloaded in HD and ready to watch over the next few days.

Lets face it, if its worth watching someone will upload it to newsgroups and probably in better quality than I could get on Sky or VM, these for example are Sky HD rips converted to Xvid

I also love the fact my wife likes watching Sci Fi and was egging me on to find all the episodes

If it wasn't for that deal I got with VM and the fact I would have to build a new media PC for the living room I can honestly say I could quite happily sack real TV tomorrow and not miss it

PS Lost SIII coming down right now

What episode are they up to with BSG now? I'm getting 18 now I didn't think the series had finished.

I'd be interested in Lost off you if you don't mind

Matblack · 20-03-2007, 18:00

18 aired last night, there will be 20 in the series

Just finished downloading all 6 series of the Sopranos, a nice 26Gb download! We got 2 x 500Gb hard drives the other day...only 200Gb left now, almost time for another one!

I know what you mean there is so much stuff to get

We're running out of space ourselves, need to get a nice large external HD

oh and also being able to do this is another reason I couldn't give a hoot Sky One went

What do you use for all your downloading Rich?

Matblack · 20-03-2007, 18:22

I've often hear said that The Sopranos is superb but like you I haven't seen it.

We started watching series in the way a while ago, downloading all the episodes and then watching 2/3 a night, it works much better for something like Lost and it keeps your attention rather than starting to forget the storyline between episodes, if TV was accessible in the way (how VM on demand should be) then I'd be drawn back to it, however because this is more convenient for me I break the law to do it :/

I've never watched BSG. As a B5/Trek/SG1 fan, I'm not sure it's my thing. :/

Wouldn't mind the latest series of SG1 and Atlantis though if anyone happens upon a backup.
