Yeah! In addition to rolling out more HD stations this fall, DirecTV is Beta Testing an on demand service. Apparently, you select the program and it gets downloaded to your DVR and then you watch it like any other program. There is no press release about this on their website yet.

Whose World is This Anyway?
Last night, the Thursday night Bible study was yet another doozie. Folks, this group is so hung up on Premillennial Dispensationalism that it’s disgusting.
