In this Weeks Show we pay tribute to The Digital Answer Man Jim Barry who passed away. We remember Jim's many appearances on TechtalkRadio and guesting on the KOLD/KMSB TV Segments. What was Jim thinking the first time he looked at Slick? Did he want to touch the Hair? In a recent discussion with Jim, he commented on this being one of the best times ever to purchase a television. Recent stats said that 34% of youth under 18 would prefer content viewing on a Smartphone rather than a large screen TV. With the Bright OLED Screens and Headphones with Dynamic Sound, we can understand that. With this shift in viewing habits we have also seen the price of HDTV 4K UHD screens decrease in price rapidly. We feature a replay of our last discussion with Jim Barry from February as we talked the latest from CES Post Wrap Up. The Guys at AntiVirus Authority ask us to take a look at thier site which gives us a great opportunity to discuss Anti Virus Solutions on the show. What is Justin's favorite and why it differs so much from Andy's. In honor of Jim Barry, Andy decides to upgrade the Television and goes with a great deal on a Sony Bravia 4k. With the new purchase it frees up a TV for Internet Content viewing. Deciding which product to get can be confusing, AppleTV- Chromecast - Roku - Amazon?? Which is the best? Justin gives us the breakdown of the Fire TV and Fire Stick, Justin also berates Andy for not having Amazon Prime! Why wouldn't you get it? It's all Justin's Fault, Andy would have Prime however he decided instead to invest in Bitcoin due to that past shows discussion. What happened as soon as Andy "bought" in? Justin recommends the Morgan Spurlock documentary, Living Off the Bitcoin however says you can't live off the Bitcoin. New Trends in Brick and Mortar shopping as Online Shopping continues to grow.
