Patty Jenkins' Star Wars: Rogue Squadron Movie Has Been Delayed

As much as I hate the whole pay services becoming the norm I have to say they are bankrolling some pretty decent stuff. Back when I first saw Star Wars in the theater, yeah I'm old shut up and get off my grass, I would never have imagined a time when I would be able to sit down and pull up that movie on demand or even a series based on that movie. Guess every cloud has a silver lining.

I love streaming, what I kinda hate with a passion is that every damned channel on the planet now wants to have a paid service to suck a little more cash out of your pocket. I get that they are in the business to make money but when you add it all up if I were to subscribe to the paid service for every channel I watch then I would exceed what I pay for cable. I also get torqued with the ones who put up the streaming services and ask you to pay for them but you still have to deal with commercials but if you pay x amount more a month we can cut out the commercials. If I'm subbing to your channel and paying to watch something I dont want any commercials. Knowing that they are charging them to play them and you to watch them it gets under my skin. I know cable does this but with cable you are paying to access the teir not the content as once you get cable you can watch anything on there at no extra charge.

I dunno call me old school I just get irate about companies trying to nickel and dime me to death.

Don't get me wrong I have a whole other list of gripes about cable TV in general, chief among them the fact that the see fit to arbitrarily up the cost of the service when the wind blows a certain direction. Honestly if my wife was capable of using a streaming service I would have cut that cord long ago however I would like some peace in the evenings and she would be in there every twenty minutes asking me how to do this or that in perpetuity. She is a very smart lady until electrons flow within a device and then she is lost as a fart in a whirlwind. I still get questions about her cell phone 3 yrs after she got it. She just doesn't grasp the whole smartphone thing.

Youtube TV is a really good live streaming service and is easier to operate than a cable box. YouTube TV has a 7-day trial, so you can give it a go for free. They have unlimited DVR and will hold the recordings for 9 months. Depending on your internet connection speed, it has extremely clear picture quality. It can be viewed on about any device (phone, iPad, TV, PC, etc.).
