Big help
"To make a long story short, I am up and running and love the setup so I have purchased a year contract (note: George refers to Movie Collector Connect). That should give me time to get my network up and running such that I can let my local and long distance family see my collection of movies.My main reason for setting this up online now is for my two grandchildren who are living with me and are avid movie watchers. My young grandson is just on the edge of reading so he can now read the descriptions of movies and know what he really wants to watch. For the past 3 years, I have had to tell him what each movie was all about - drove me crazy because he loves so many different movies. Have to love him and now he is so proud that he can read most of the words and his vocabulary is growing daily.
Thanks again for your help - sorry I am so long-winded in saying thanks, but your product has been a big help in my "Love for Movies" life."
