The streams are 500, 1000, or 1500 Kb/s as far as I've ever seen (Silverlight player).

At high quality, a 2 hour movie is 1.3GB or so:

Nope, I have the Roku player. It goes up to 3.2 or 3.3 Mb/sec. Came with the HD update. Press home, home, home, home, home, rw, rw, rw, ff, ff to select a speed. Or does that give extra health?
My car's speedometer goes up to 140 Mph. Doesn't mean it'll ever go that fast.

Not a very good analogy at all.

Did you purchase that car with the promise it would go up to 140mph? No you did't. Its like saying I purchased my computer with a Gig-E ethernet jack, so I expect it to go that fast all the time. The analogy just doesn't work. More than likely your car won't even go that fast, due to a limit of the tires - that will be limited by the computer.

Did folks enter into an agreement for unlimited internet at "speeds up to 10 meg down / 5 up" (or for the nazis, insert your speeds you were led to believe to be 24/7 and unlimited here), yes.
