Nintendo Wii: Sold like gangbusters.
64bit Processors: The computing standard.
Battlestar Galactica: Considered one of the greatest sci-fi series of all time.
Facebook: Continues to be the world’s leading social media platform by literally BILLIONS of users.
High Definition: HD only got even more HD.
iPhone: Set the standard for mobile smartphone form factor and function to this day 16 years later.
That’s exactly what they were saying, no? “even more HD” = UHD.
lol what does that even mean
They’re probably referring to streaming. I don’t know when this article came out, but considering they’re talking about literally the first iPhone I guess we can assume it’s 2007 or 2008, and Netflix started streaming back in 2007.
Apart from that, perhaps they’re referring to when Amazon started offering movies to buy or rent online, but I don’t know when they started doing that.
The first movie available to buy on iTunes was High School Musical in March 2006. Apple then launched the iTunes Movie Store in September and by the next year (sometime around when this was probably written) was bragging about having sold a couple million movies.
Anyway, I think they’re likely talking about downloading proper rather than streaming.
