Hi!

This is my first post. Hello to you all!
I myself am an engineering consultant, as in I buy products from around the world for my company. I am one of the ten or eleven lucky people that are able to fly round the world.

On my latest trip to Hong Kong with CX (whom I've flown many times before), I do feel that StudioCX doesn't live up to its reputation. I flew a 744 from LHR-HKG and it broke down. However, I think that even with it on, Singapore Airlines' Wisemen is much better. I find the choices of movies (not only Western ones) wider and it's more reliable. However, note that they haven't installed in Y class on many aircraft. I know the LHR-SIN flight has it in all classes, their "Jubilee" 772ERs have it and maybe some 773s have it.

Don't get me wrong though, the normal CX system is also great. However don't think anything at the moment can beat SIA's KrisWorld/Wisemen, though it is comparable. EK doesn't come close to the two.
