For some time now, it has been possible to imagine a moment when you will be able to watch whatever you want whenever you want in the setting of your choice.
The handful of websites that now offer streaming or downloadable feature films offer a glimpse看一看 of what is to come.
One of the intriguing非常有趣 promises these websites hold is a kind of virtual幾乎、虛擬 cinematheque实验电影院.
The retrieval取回 and preservation保護 of film history has been a project of many decades, accelerated and democratize使(國家或組織)民主化 by the rise of the DVD, which has put hundreds of old films in easy reach of the multitudes多數.
