I love tivo

Doing the assignments of finding different elements of sound in cinema has gone against everything that our parents have taught us. When we were younger our parents told us "No T.V. until your homework is done." and now I'm having to think "no homework until your T.V. watching is done." It's just bizarre how things you learn in college go completely against everything our parents told us. It's strange to say but it's been hard for me to fit watching T.V. and movies into my busy schedule. This is why I am so grateful for TiVo. Since you can't really speed up the amount of time that it takes you to watch something, like you can do with other homework, you really have to have a good chunk of time to actually accomplish this task. But thanks to TiVo, I can actually save time in watching by cutting out all the BS of commercials and actually find what i really need. The ability fast forward through all the things i dont need to watch, rewind to something that i missed, and pause to refill on snacks has been a godsend in doing something that i never would have thought of as homework. And as far as sound goes, that baboop baboop can't be beat.
