Personally, I find the ten-foot viewing experience vastly superior to a computer monitor, and totally worth arranging my furniture a particular way.
I can lounge as I watch, I don't have to hold my head a particular way, I can share the couch with someone else, and it also feels more natural to my eyes.
That's not to say that I would never watch a movie on a computer monitor (I have, plenty of times) but I prefer ten-foot.
- wpietri 13y agoYeah. I'm the same way. I hate having a whole room arranged as if for worshiping a video altar. My compromise is a projector on a white wall. Then my room isn't dominated by a giant TV. The A/V gear is all tucked away in a closet, and my speakers are small ones white ones that sit up close to the ceiling. I feed it from a media server. I like this better. When I'm in a hotel room, I feel like the TV almost demands watching. It's almost menacing to me these days compared with an unobtrusive setup.
- sliverstorm 13y agoI understand your sentiment; what I have done is set up a separate media room. Of course this requires an extra room, but the TV cannot demand I watch it. I am only in that room, when I am meaning to watch some TV.
