Santa Clara, CA | 4G download to see DVD? I think it is cheaper and better to go to store and buy those $12 DVD rather than wait for hours to download a 4G DVD movie.
For HD-DVD that's like 20G file? gee, one day to download a movie on DSL? |

| I guess it depends on your connection.. I'm on a 100Mbps fiber optic connection at my house here in Japan, I download DVDs to the tune of at least 10 per week.. anyway, from my favorite torrent site, it takes me less than an hour to get a 4.36gb .iso file DVD.... so I think nothing of it really.
But 20GB's will be a pain in the ass, even on my connection... lol

I dont know what kind of connection you have. But a dvd takes me an hour to download. I havnt set foot in a video store or looked at dvd to buy in over 10 years. Either I download it or record it off of satellite. HDdvd and blueray are just a waste right now. Of course until there is a winner. The beta and vhs war is back. Will sony loose again? Time will tell. |
