There was this one time in my childhood, when, my sister got her first phone - a burner phone. We were so excited at all the prospects a phone held that we sometimes put together whatever amount we had, to buy data. Or if we were lucky, we got free data from apps like Opera Mini and the likes. And coincidentally, the famous Korean drama Boys Over Flower was trending then. My sister, when we got back from school, would tell us stories her friend told her about the series, because we didn't have a TV then. So, when my sister got her phone, we all saw it as a prayer answered. 

We watched so many clips of boys over flowers on YouTube and even with how awful the quality of the videos were, and the resolution, I never found it any less appealing. I watched so many clips here and there on YouTube and Opera Mini, not even fazed that my favourite characters appeared grainy. But to be very honest, I did that because I really didn't have a choice.

If I see a picture now, and without even zooming in, some parts of it are blurry, I most times want to get done with whatever made me take a look at it in the first place and let it go. I hate it when I'm watching a video and the movements have this grainy filter on them. It makes the video or picture distasteful almost immediately. 

Now, I remember one time I posted a reel on my status. I didn't really bother about the video's quality, after all, it was a reel. I posted the video and absolutely forgot about it because it wasn't really something I did for the attention. I just posted it for posting sake. And as we all know, Whatsapp has a knack for reducing video quality. I posted it and about four hours later, I decided to view it. Viewing it, I realized that the texts on the video weren't visible at all, and the images on the screen were so bad. With speed akin to that of lightning, I hit the delete button. I was so shamed at it that I went as far as deleting the video notwithstanding the fact that I loved the content of the reel. Yes, that's how far my distaste runs for it. 

I am a full HD fan. If I am ever forced to watch a movie of very poor quality, you'll find me falling asleep way into it. I remember when Moana 2 was released in Theaters only. A friend of mine happened to download it from an illegal website and I, thrilled at the idea of watching a movie that hadn't been released to the general public, I asked her to give me. I started watching it and found the quality so low. I started watching it and slept few minutes into it. I woke up to the credits. Sadly, I haven't watched Moana 2 till today, due to how that poor version traumatized me. 

I'm a sucker for everything of good quality. I can't count the amount of movies I've watched thanks to the quality. And my friends know this. There are some friends I will never tell to download a movie for me because they can go ahead to download a movie of 120p (I have no idea if that exists), as long as they don't get to waste so much data. And there are some, anytime they offer, it becomes a privilege because they're downloading nothing less than 720p to 1060p. 

So there, you have it. My response to the #digi-prompts for the week. You're welcome to participate. 

Thanks for reading.
