I am mainly thinking of times when I don't have a connection (aka no internet, boon-docking) and watching something. Someone said Red Box, but that and other DVD services need a return overnight or take another fee. So I was wondering if we can copy/download from the home TV to load into Laptop and then play later.
Streaming came to mind as a movie, with no commercials. We don't mind paying for a service, but not commercial TV copies ( too old) .... just movies with NO breaks.
Looks like that's a No-workie :) thanks y'all for the info... M44
