Embarrasing Question - Page 3

I'm another person with a flip phone! LOL

I only do DVD workouts. I can't stream or do YouTube videos because of buffering. I have "high speed internet," but I live in the country - so, yeah... It's okay, though, because I'm not someone who needs much variety and I'm happy doing the same workouts every day that I've been doing for the last 10 years.

I usually use a laptop screen for workouts, either streamed or downloaded.
For me it is the easiest and fastest way to workout and I do several sparks a day.
Both laptops are hooked up to old power speakers because I need music.

I could use a HDmi cable if I wanted to use my HDTV but the laptop is good enough and I would have to move a coffee table to use the TV with a bungee.

No smart phone but I do have a tablet and a special HDmi cable that has a smaller end for the tablet's HDmi port. However, I use the tablet without the tv for videos that are filmed in portrait mode (higher instead of wider) like some facebook b bOUNDER videos.

Honestly, it is easier to hook up a laptop or mobile device to a HDTV with a HDmi cable than hook up a dvd player to a tv.
The HD TV just needs the correct HDmi imput selected.

ETA: I did alot of free trials and only stayed subscribed to reasonably priced subscriptions that I am currently into.
My current favorite is $10 a month for wonderful routines with good music and scenery:

I have annual subs to NiaTV, BollyX and Healthy UTV which were all less than half priced.
(Leslie Sansone is only $5 a month but I already have all of her routines.)
I own streamed content for Jessica Smith, Misty Tripoli, Suzanne Andrews, and Sue Grant as well as a few others like Zumba Strong, Lee Holden 30Day, and Body by Simone Trampoline.
If given a choice of streamed content or dvd, I now prefer streamed content.
I stream directly online from the websites because I have a decent internet.
Otherwise, would need an app or downloaded file but not all streams offer offline availability.

Reading thru all the responses is making me chuckle because I feel like I'm reading a foreign language
