Only way I know to do this is by streaming the show and recording it as it shows up on the monitor. Ripping the videos of those shows and movies is not such a simple matter, at least with a Mac. It looks like a looming existential crisis is soon to be coming at me. But there are also other very important things that I can only stream without overcomplicating my existence, such as all those magnificent cartoons I keep writing about.

Is it going to be - because, let’s say, someone at Apple forgot that not everyone doing that will have a T2 machine - that I won’t be able to see ever again “Buffy the Vampire Slayer” streamed from Amazon Prime, right now for the eight time in the last fourteen years? (Yes, I am that big a fan.)Īnd, by the way, these are real, serious questions I have, even if phrased a little snarkily.Īlex, I also got all the BTVS’ DVDs (the whole seven seasons), I just find it more convenient to stream the show. My existential question here is: what may happen to my entire ability to stream at any resolution, never mind a super-high resolution I feel not the slightly tiny bit of interest in (but seems like a bad way to hog band width to no worthy purpose I can discern, unless it is remote over-the-Internet brain surgery?) when I move my non-T2 chip Mac to start running Big Sur? I have the last MacBook Pro (now running Mojave) made and sold before the first one with a T2 chip - but still with a convenient diversity of sockets to plug things in such as USB, HDMI, Ethernet cables in, no butterfly keyboard and no questionable touch bar instead of function keys (cool, but so what?).
