Liz’s titles are getting better all the time. Our time management…not so much. This podcast is looooong (which is why we didn’t have much of a Google+ Hangout after). This week Liz and Tom start off with Netflix news (still looking for a segment song though the intro dance is coming along nicely) about Arrested Development. Liz and Tom weigh in on the new iPhone, Sony’s decision to stop subsidizing 3D glasses, and Facebook’s “Timeline.” Tom answers a pair of listener questions about dropped LCDs (that wasn’t a question but they addressed it – pic below) and toe-in. Dual Soup-to-Nuts this week with Tom covering linear speakers and Liz addressing some of the devices that also stream (rather than set-top streaming devices of a few weeks back).

Liz names her first podcast. Note the deplorable lack of innuendo. Oh well, she’s still learning. If you haven’t already, please check out Tom’s Master of Macabre story and vote here. This week, Tom and Liz are still in need of a Netflix segment song but that doesn’t mean they don’t talk about Netflix and their new Dreamworks deal. Clint has an experience on a plane that leads Liz to ask a question about SPL and hearing damage. Liz’s Koss Pro4AA Headphones are back (link to the new model, Liz’s are vintage) which leads to a discussion of listening tests. Tom tackles a few listener questions, rants a bit on Bose and Atlantic Technology, and Liz sends out an Amazon warning that is completely lost on Tom. Will people cutting the cable finally bring about TV a la carte? Tom doesn’t think so. This week’s Soup to Nuts is on how to get the Internet into your HT.

This may be our last podcast after Liz sees the title. Hopefully she’s in a good mood that day. The title should be “Listener Question Day” as Tom and Liz tackle five different emails. Star Wars Blu-ray in 6.1? Who cares when Tom has a new favorite movie. David gives AV Rant a first and has a few questions about subs. Tim fills us in on Blockbuster closing in Canada. Jason is thinking of mounting his speakers and has a question about center changel placement. Liz found a device that she absolutely loves and a solution for commercials that Tom thinks is brilliant. Movie revenues are up but is attendance? Tom and Liz speculate. Amazon considers a new book lending solution. Liz’s Soup to Nuts is on set-top-streaming boxes (notes below).

Liz dropped the ball on the Soup to Nuts but Tom sort of covered with a listener question. Learn about how a sub and a room can interact to strange results. Netflix and Starz broke up. What it means for you and is it a bad thing? Apple can’t seem to keep track of their new phones. George Lucas can’t seem to leave well enough alone. Aperion Audio releases a Dipole/Bipole speaker (Verus line) and Tom dissects it. Look for a full report on Audioholics soon. Thanks for listening and don’t forget to vote for us at Podcast Alley!
