I think people remember just fine. It's been one year, not a decade.

Thing is different people value that experience differently, which is totally fine. Personally, I just don't care about a big screen or a big sound system. I recognize that it's bigger and grander than my home setup, but I just don't care. To me, the more valuable parts of the experience are the comforts of home. I'd rather be on my own couch at home, not surrounded by strangers, and able to pause a film if I need to go to the bathroom or do this or that.

So to people like me, the ability to get all that is worth the $30. For people who put more importance on the big screen and audio, it's not worth it, which is totally fine.
