NO NO NO! movies are more than 400mb (good quality), take itme to download...transfer to hard drive That isn't mainstream at all... |
Why do you think MS even entered the gaming market? This is future of mainstream videos. You can download a full length HD movie in about 30mins. That is less than it takes most people to drive to a rental store. It may not be "mainstream" now, but it will be in the next few years.
Broadband levels are only getting faster, the abilities to play these files on your TV's are only getting easier. It is only a matter of time. I for one know that I have no intention of purchasing either HD player. I will build a new PC with full media capabilities and have that connected to my TV. I will begin digital only video rentals soon. I know I am not the only one that this appeals to.
