Paying a fixed fee, so it's 'not costing anything extra'       to browse and surf...               AA> There was a time when it seemed fun to see a film for the first        AA> time after an initial release and make it an event with friends        AA> or family.

I don't want to       have to interupt to go to the bathroom or get refills. :-)                                   ...
