Netflicks?

I did a bandwidth test and found that one hour of streaming movie uses one GB of bandwidth - so the 5 GB limit that many data plans have will be used up with two and a half average movies.

Redbox has machines in many Walmarts and supermarkets. You can rent a DVD from one Redbox machine and return it to another so this is an alternative to streaming video while traveling. There are apps to find Redbox locations and also their website should tell you where their machines are located.

yes, 1775, that's the info I want. And, yes also, the Red Box is a good resource and we've used it in the past.

Sometimes, we hear about something and want to research it - like the NetFlicks - and we often find it doesn't work well because of our lifestyle. We were looking for a way to download because we do spend a lot of time away from civilization - but it looks like this idea ain't gonna happen for us. The 5G will probably not work - nor the mail due to on-the-road ...

So, another idea bites the dust - we'll still use Red Box when we can.
Seems like tho, the electronic world at one time was going to make life more efficient - but all it's done is increase expenses and create addicts ... kids can't live for five seconds without a phone on their ear or watching a text or video while walking down the roads.

Remember when a phone was wired to your house and cost $5 a month, and you had to listen first to see if the neighbor was using it, and when you walked to the store you actually saw leaves and birds instead of a tiny screen you can barely see... LONG GONE those days - who woulda thunk it ??
