Comcast's On-Demand service is so damn slow that it is practically useless. You can just throw a DVD in the player and watch the whole movie before Comcast's On-Demand service is even done loading.
When I had Comcast the problem with HD VoD wasn't slowness of loading the problem was availability. I never busted out a spreadsheet but I would say that roughly 1/4 of the time I tried to view a HD VoD show I would get a blue box that said the show was not available for viewing.
