Not at all, Den. I have made it clear throughout that I am talking about 20, not 2 years' time.

I'm already forced to pay £145.50 to watch the junk the BBC pumps out these days , I certainly won't be giving them anymore money most of their older shows are available anyway on the likes of Gold etc.

Yes it does chuck out some junk that's for sure but it also does quite a few gems as well.

To infer that the BBC only puts out junk these days is a ridiculous representation of their output. They put out some well liked and respected dramas and documentaries. All channels put out programming that each of us regard, in our personal view, as junk. But to deny that they also put out good things is plainly wrong.

Each to their own I was meaning in my personal opinion I wasn't trying to speak for others. You think it's value for money were I don't.

Exactly as Sky and ITV amongst others also chuck out some good and bad output as well.

Indeed, Netflix has started releasing some junk shows too.

I've just called Netflix to find out what 3D content it has for me to try out.

They said that that 3D content is only available in the US, but that they are working on trying to bring it to the UK.

Is there still a way for us to easily access US content? If not, is 3D available via Kodi, Plex etc?

I still access the US with unblockUS on the Xbox One for now.
