Victor!,

I'm not sure I alone could manage hogging Netflix bandwidth, but I have noticed more frequent problems with the TV cable service- pixelations and an annoying delay message- "Such and such Channel is not available" which is on screen only three seconds- it seems to remind me how fragile the system is. About once every two weeks, the modem reboots in the middle of something and this takes 3-4 minutes and requires turning it back on. I'm really fed up with Time-Warner- every day there are more defects in the service and while it declines in quality, they just raised the price for me $18 per month.

Your problem with defective discs is a new concern- I've only had three and the sleeves and discs do look rather ropey. As there's is really almost no protection in those lightweight envelopes, actually I'm surprised there aren't more problems.

Will be seeing "Andrei Rublev" on DVD in the near future. You must know this great Tarkovsky movie- the story of the 15th Century Russian icon painter who has a creative crisis and organises a village cast a new church bell- which is big as a house. It's been 25 years since I saw it but I still remember the wonderful photography. It's kind of beautifully austere and quiet - really good.

I wish Tarkovsky had done a treatment of Rasputin- are there any very good ones?

Cheers,
