25. Since I'm on dialup I can't do video, so I don't watch anything at home except DVDs.

I still have a TV, but since the conversion to digital I'm too far out in the boonies to get a signal. I refuse to pay for dish (which is all that's available out here), so my TV is just a monitor for watching movies.

I catch a little TV in the breakroom at work, and sometimes when I go hang out at my sister's house I'll catch up on some programs that she's recorded on her DVR.

For my home entertainment it's just radio, DU, and books.
