Way back in 2010, we used to order DVD's through an online website but each arrived at the apartment via Canada Post. How quaint! No, actually the adjective might be archaic.I'm now spoilt by having access to thousands of movies via Internet streaming. For example, after a hard weekend teaching, it was time for us to choose a movie to watch this evening. I said I was in the mood for a western, and many were on tap for viewing on our own schedule.
We scrolled through just the front page before seeing a cover photo that looked promising. A single click brought up relevant data and reviews. Okay, Hombre (1967) it is. I cannot imagine going back to the days where we had to survive on crumbs of TV networks, or a trip to the video store (which incidentally are all closed now). Even the ease of picking up from the mailbox downstairs offered only several titles at a time.
I am not only spoilt by the selection, but I am finding it extremely difficult to remember how we used to live back in 2010.
