    Lodging facilities without 'adult' movies

    I just ran across this today and didn't see any previous posts. Move if appropriate.

    "CleanHotels.com is a network of lodging facilities that do not offer in-room, 'adult', pay-per-view movies."

    I don't usually check out hotel TV, but considering that they make an effort to "keep it clean", I'll scan the menu if I travel.

    As a good Presbyterian of Scots ancestry, I'm too cheap to do pay-per-view anyway.

    More and more hotels have DVD players. You can take along a DVD while travelling (e.g. 1953 version "Martin Luther") and watch that in your hotel room and not even get into all the filth and nonsense the media would want to sell you.

    How absurd a tenet is this, which holdeth that there is some particular worship of God allowed, and not commanded? What new light is this which maketh all our divines to have been in the mist, who have acknowledged no worship of God, but that which God hath commanded? Who ever heard of commanded and allowed worship?

    That is the main reason I bought an iPod Touch a couple of years ago. I was able to take 8 movies and not depend on the hotel having a DVD player.

    Does it really matter all that much? I mean most of the hotels we stay at now are 4 star hotels (thanks to hotwire.com and their super heap prices) and they all have PPV but we've never ordered anything on it.

    That's what we do. Avoid the PPV and leave the "high" channels (HBO, Cinemax, etc.) alone. Stick to the news, weather, and family programming for the kids. Pretty much the thing we do at home.

    I'm rarely in the hotel though, when I'm staying in a hotel. It's usually just for sleep during travel.
