Yesterday my wife bought "The Island" (Ewan McGregor, Scarlett Johansson) on DVD.

When she got home she ripped it (on her Raspberry Pi4B) to an MKV file:

$ ls -l the_island.mkv

-rw-r--r-- 1 movies movies 1466848852 Sep 17 19:13 the_island.mkv

Then we watched it, sitting on the sofa with the dogs. We played it on a Raspberry Pi2.

The 'dollars' symbol is what thos of us who know anything about computers call a 'prompt'.
