Or watch movies on their phones or on iPads or through Roku.

Retirement communities and nursing homes with tv's don't stream and dvr stuff very much either yet.

It's simple for me to watch it on PBS online through my Roku w/o even taping it, but try explaining that to most elderly parents/grandparents. Just getting my elders to understand digital cable has been an uphill battle.
