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.

Described as an 'educational news program aimed at 10–13 year old kids', BTN is commonly used by schools in Australia as an education tool to help children catch up with current affairs and issues. BTN currently has three shows. Classroom is the flagship weekly show that investigates various news topics for 10–13 year olds. Newsbreak is a daily news show to help Australians kids stay informed on current affairs within 5 minutes. High is exclusive to digital platforms and goes more in-depth into topics that are more appropriate for high school students. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
