I can’t see it On our last flight, the new digis kept dying and they finally ran out of spares when Mr. Fink’s third one packed it in just as he was 2/3 through a movie. I pulled out the ipad but the same film wasn’t available on Beyond. So the digis have way more content as well.

So for us, the loss of the digis would be tragic.
and for the rest of us, FT hyperbole reaches another all-time high
