I been using the Adobe Media Player to watch old and new CSI shows. I also watch Movies with it.

I was just wondering if itunes will do something to. These shows and movies are free and can be ported to your HDTV. On most you need to be connected to watch, but there are alot you can DL and watch later. They are adding newer Shows and Movies all the time. I give it a year and it will be pretty damn good. they do throw a 10second Chili commercial in every 20mins or so.

Just a thought.

Interesting... I haven't touched Media Player yet. So you can watch CSI like 'on demand'? Just click, let it stream, and watch? The commercials I can put up with, cable TV has lots more than one per every 20 minutes. Can you save everything or just a select few? Can you export them to a movie file and watch it on another computer?

Yes you can watch it on demand, you can even add the shows to a folder you want to watch later on.

It's about 50/50 on downloads vs stay connected. I can understand that part. The downloaded ones you can move around or convert. The rest I just use my HDMI output to my TV.
