That’s pretty much it. There are a couple of rather well known publications that claimed CES is dead, nothing to show etc. Pretty sure they were just not invited by multitudes of off-site showcases and demo rooms. I had to sadly turn down invitations as I just don’t have enough time to go to every single invite (both off site or at meeting rooms of LVCC). One web outlet even talk about Monoprice THX lineup as if it is a new thing. It’s been announced and showcased since January at CES, where were you guys?

Or just click on the sun/moon at the topmost part of the screen, over on the right...

LordoftheRings · 10-10-2019, 06:21 AM

That too...clicking on the moon gets you the HDR (Dark mode) ...a bright sun.

LordoftheRings · 10-10-2019, 11:53 PM

You know Penton, with a HDR DARK mode now I predict that by year's end we'll see a rise of Blu-ray sales on Amazon. ...Even with everyone going stream.
Why? Not only because it's more relax for the eyes, it's much prettier but also because with more time spent on the site there's no better ways to spend more money on Blu-ray discs before they become extinct.

I think ...

Anyway it's a nice welcoming touch ...

And shout out to Daryn
