I'd have thought you, as a classical music fan, would have understood that.

Oh, I understand it all right. It's just that movies as such aren't really a very important part of my life. I am probably one of the few people who have TiVo, but do not subscribe to any cable or satellite service -- all I get are the four TV networks, and PBS. I watch a lot of TV (well, I watch a lot of TiVo, I never watch TV) but not with any studied intensity. Since TiVo records more programs than I have time to watch, my patience is pretty limited -- if it doesn't grab me in the first 10-15 minutes, I delete it and go on to something that does.
