Virtual reality is the new "home theater on a budget" :)

For those of you who haven't tried VR yet, something to consider....

A $300 Oculus quest 2 gives you everything you need to watch your favorite movie in your choice of venue.  High end theater, top of mount Everest, bridge of the Enterprise......   If you add a nice USB headphones the audio is also top notch.  Apps like "Bigscreen" even allow you to watch your favorite movies with friends remotely.

Functionality wise most streaming services have native apps (Netflix, YouTube, Disney, etc).  For movie rip playback there are also many options.  You can even run NetPlayTV to get all your distributed sources.

The new multiprocessing update now allows you to have multiple apps running at the same time (it arrays the app "windows" around you automatically).

IMO, it is an awesome experience for the times you are stuck in a hotel room or at home and don't want to disturb the rest of the family.

Quest is an Android device so it should be able to run the C4 mobile app as well (control your house from VR).
