I think all are supposed to now...But they were rolling it out in
batches, so if you don't have those yet, you should VERY soon.

On the whole list vs. forum, I say that both are good, but in the end,
I like lists better. I can download them to the laptop and read w/o
internet, I can read the lists from school without drawing tons of
attention with flashing banners (most forums _do_ have them...), etc.

But forums have their plusses too. I think the best solution (for me,
anyway) is Gmail with POP, Labels and Filters, plus the Wiki at
mythtv.info. =)

Just my $0.02.
