Two Spinal Taps, four thumbs up!

For my final evening of HBO Max, the wife and I watched both Spinal Tap movies.

These Rob Reiner movies have both goodness and greatness in them.

If you watch Max and it looks poor on the screen, as it did with my LG TV, try watching through an Apple TV box!

We bought the Apple box because it boasts maximum picture quality.

My aim is to use a different streaming service each month. I'm going to watch a week of PBS, then activate a Paramount subscription. They offered a free month if I come back.

Paramount picture quality is another one people complain about. Again, it's something much better using Apple TV box as the tuner.

As for Apple own programming, lots of good stuff. Everything good could all be watched in a month or two.
