I created this question because there are times that we all wonder what is right and what is wrong on television programs and on the internet.  This question can help us have a better understanding on how they decide what to censor and why.

What is Information??????

What exactly is information???? Everyone has their own interpretation of information but most describe it as something that passes between two people.  In fact to me information is a natural concept to the facts of life.  Every day there is some sort of information that is passed between on another.  In school we learn and study the information that is given to us by our professors to help broaden our aspects of things in the world we know today.  According to Edward M. Houseman information is many things.  It is a combination of what is said between two people, it occupies space, it cannot move without noise, occupies space, and many other aspects he describes.  He goes to say that there are two types of information, the physical and biological.  Different organizations have their own definition of information.  The business definition of information can be found at the following link.  http://www.businessdictionary.com/definition/information.html            

Even though there are many different definitions of information I believe that everyone is entitled to their own personal feeling on it and how it is used over time. 

Entertainment!!1

When buying music and movies you tend to wonder different things.  Should I buy a CD or buy from ITunes?  DVD or Blu-Ray?  Netflix or Hulu?  Many people have wondered this in the past and it is no different today. 

I have asked these questions to some of my friends and found out that for them it’s all about quality.  Now for Netflix and Hulu are both for streaming TV shows and movies.  The main difference between the two is the fact that Hulu has shows that are up to date with today’s TV instead of having to wait for it to come out on DVD and then wait an extra month for it to be placed on live stream.  Here are the links for both Netflix and Hulu.  http://www.hulu.com/released?h=23      http://www.hulu.com/released?h=23     The best part of Hulu and Netflix is that they both offer a free trial period.  Netflix is a free month and Hulu plus is a week. 

As for DVD or Blu-Ray it is a preference.  Blu-Ray sounds and looks better then DVD but then Blu-Ray is fully hi-def 1080p.  Blu-Ray requires a special disc player and if you want the full hi-def feeling a HDTV.

Now to everyone’s music choice!  We all know about iTunes and the main difference between purchasing your music from their or in CD form from places like Wal-Mart, FYE, Sam Goodies, and other music stores.  For this it is also a preference on which you like.  If you like spending $9.99 on an album from iTunes, or a few dollars more and buy from a store.

For all of these media choices it is your own opinion on which to use and purchase from.
