When I want to watch a Matt Damon flick, I want to watch it now. Not when it comes on cable, not when it’s in stock at the local video store, not even when it gets delivered by mail … I want to watch it now!

Concerned about my blood pressure, some of my technically minded friends pointed me towards video on demand, and life has been happy and peaceful ever since. Now when I want a quick fix of Damon-fineness I can download a movie and watch it right there and then, wherever I am.

Well, except in church. And during an exam. And while I’m water skiing. But pretty much everywhere else.
