The catalogue in 3D
The film shelves have a room of their own that you can walk around in. The cat behind the counter is the AI Catbot, and they pick real films from the same catalogue when you tell them what you feel like watching. Nothing is for sale, here or in there. Go in from here and this series is already out on the counter, with more like it waiting on the shelf next to it.
How it feels

What happens
Three for the Money is an American game show produced by Stefan Hatos-Monty Hall Productions that aired on NBC from September 29 to November 28, 1975. Dick Enberg was the host with Jack Clark announcing. Enberg was also hosting Sports Challenge at the time and had just joined NBC's sports division. Three for the Money was picked up to replace Jackpot after it was cancelled after 21 months and was placed at 12:30 pm Eastern following The Magnificent Marble Machine. The show only aired for eight weeks (with an off-air week near the end) and was replaced by its lead-in, following an expansion of Wheel of Fortune to sixty minutes. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
