    What is that line in the Pink Floyd song? "I got thirteen channels of shit on the tv to choose from..".

    Netflix is beginning to resemble that. I mean I love Netflix but its becoming a little hit-or-miss. The alternatives (proprietary content from HBO Now) are becoming more alluring.

    Anyway I just signed up a year's subscription with MUBI. I haven't had a chance to see "Junun" yet, but I just recently watched "The Reluctant Fundamentalist" by Mira Nair. I was blown away by the quality of the Music/Soundtrack in that.

    I don't know the precise style of music in the movie (Qawwali/Hindustani???) but I have never heard anything so amazing.
