A friend of mine had a job which involved sitting on a boat for weeks on end not doing anything while they waited for conditions to be right to leave the harbour, and even then, to do any work. So he would download tons of films and games to his laptop in preparation for the long periods of paid imprisonment. This sounds a lot like the sixties equivalent of that.
