As i said.A long time.Downloading a dvd isnt the same as hd, how big are these files going to be.Even so there is only so much compression will do.You are going to loose quality.Not a good thing with the change to hi def.What will the time delay be to download.How many households within the next 5 years will be able to stream hd movies.Cause hd dvd and bluray are almost here.months
Tv companies are having trouble finding enough bandwidth delivering hd programing.I honestly believe that if they cant do it at an afordable price doing so in the home isnt viable YET. Im sure the technology is there, (which is more your feild.)
Even if a system like digital downloads works with some countries what will the rest do.Will the movie formats be split between hardware and digital.And as i said before what will the new media format be if this is all posible within the next year or 2.After all people arnt goin to want to download movies over and over.They still need to be written to something for storage or else no one will want to pay much,and movie studios wont want to support it.Basicly only movie broadcasts would be left.If its being written to something in your house which you have to pay for then why not mass produce it and offer it in that form in the first place for cheaper.
Maybe i missunderstand the whole downloading digital content thing but the way i see it.
Will average joe consumer:
-Buy a computer or device with a writable drive capable of holding true 720p-1080p movies in dolby digital plus surround 7.1.Or settle for non keepable movies.
-Get a internet conection of 54Mbps asuming average joe doesnt want to wait for the movie to download.(i dont think most consumers would change formats to something you have to wait to get.It would feel like going backwards.) This would also mean perfect conection to server with no hicups.
-Pay more on top of that for the movie or some type of monthly pay scheme for satalite broadcasting.Or internet movie rental
-And because we are talking a current change in formats im going to assume windows vista upgrade will be required for people with computers allready.Assuming they are powerfull enough to run them.

Or would you buy a blu-ray player and buy the movies on disk.From a store where they can see the product for themeselves in person and have someone to complain to when it doesnt work.Instead of ringing India everytime something goes wrong.A simple plug and play device that has no extra cost on top of the movie purchase.

How many average joe buy stuff off the internet.Whats their view on the subject and is it going to change in the next few years.
