We have a computer hooked up to our TV but it is Linux-based. I'm not crazy about watching movies on my computer monitor, but if I could watch them on my TV screen I'd likely be a big fan of "Watch Now." I downloaded a movie legally last week as part of a promotion, and it took much longer than I'd predicted ... I ended up leaving it running for a couple of hours while I went to the office. And that was a small, lo-def version of the feature-length film. What annoys me about Netflix’s “Watch Now” is that it is limited to Windows (and I think IE).
