That could be. I hadn't heard of that system before.

I finally got my new PVR from Rogers.  So much for 'overnight' shipping,
I got it 6 days later. Purolator postponed it by a day or two saving
up to get enough deliveries in my area to make the drive worthwhile.

Still watching a lot of movies on those new Starz network channels.
As I mentioned, commercial free, and all the newer movies are in
high def (not that I care for my CRT TV) but I was a bit surprised
to grab a movie the other night that had full frontal nudity.
Possibly those are purposely broadcast later in the evening..

Not a 'porn' type movie, just something with sex in it that had
a woman walking around undressed.
