Amazon Prime is great. Not only do you get free shipping on many items(and 3.99/item overnight), but you also get about 10000 titles to stream free.


The 3.99 overnight option even works on air conditioners....
I plan on buying a new TV soon and I have a very good PC that would easily run whatever I want on it.

Maybe I should just skip the Apple tv...

I stream 1080 HD content to my computer screen all the time.


Which begs the question, whats the best LCD TV you can get right now in the 45-50 inch size range? I want thin and light because its getting mounted on a wall.
