My square eyes are now widescreen

[Poll #1656749]

A quick definition for the non-technology-minded:
If you're watching it on iPlayer or via any website, or via Video On Demand, then you're streaming. If you download a file to your computer to watch whenever you feel like it then you're downloading.
Oh, and VHS tapes, for the purposes of this poll, count as shiny disks. You are also banished back to the Second Millenium.

I'm very even now between streaming and shiny disks, thanks to V+. Downloading is well behind because I tend not to download if the thing is readily available on shiny disks (nothing I want is ever available to download legally for money at a price I'm happy to pay -- I do sort of hope this changes soon, but I do not understand why they think I'll pay the same price as the Blu-Ray for something that is lower quality and *cannot be watched on my TV*), and I have quite forgotten that it's possible to record video.

I still watch less than one show a day on average though.
