Bah
How do they know if the file being transfered is legal or not? How do they know if i transfer an mp3 file to someone else wither or not we both have the physical mp3? That is flawed right there.

OR if it's being transfered from, oh lets say, my home machine to my lap top while I'm out on the road somewhere.. (same for some previously recorded / saves (dvr ?) video file or anything really)

Because they are lawyers, they KNOW the law (at least 50% of the time.)

Recently, DirecTV launched an On Demand service that uses the internet to allow you to select files for download. They have movies, TV and other content. All of that is copyrighted material, but I assume that DirecTV has cleared the rights for that form of distribution. Is this new setup going to be able to tell.

And of course, this is a competing service to ATT. I am sure they will go out of the way to make sure that it does not get "accidentally" delayed or degraded.
