This has not worked in previous years and we've had suboptimal streaming as a result. It's time to get it done properly and make ourselves look Apple-good. We had this same discussion last year, and nothing has changed. We should be in a better position this year to actually make this simple decision. And if buying is cheaper than renting, why not just take the cheap option? Think of it as renting with a free computer at the end.
