    We had an Xbox hooked up to a wall mounted TV in our company break room. I used to show up first in the morning and play movies and streams on it for people to breeze by and see throughout the day. I could easily see someone doing this in a game store or gaming cafe.

      This is probably the real explanation. I’ve been in several local small businesses where they’re constantly streaming the same TV shows/movies every time I go in there.

        Yeah LOTR is great because you’d only need to change the movie twice in a full 8 hour shift (for Netflix standard editions)

      My wife puts Harry Potter movies on for background noise. We probably play some of them 100 times per year if not more. We only watch maybe 2% of the time though.
