Re: Netflix + Redbox not Broadband seriously... I leave my hose keys in public all the time!
Cable VOD does not make broadband redundant because they charge $4.00+ for a movie... Consider Netflix who charges a monthly fee for DVDs and unlimited VOD content.
Hollywood will do just fine, even if content is made DRM free. The point is to provide it at a reasonable price so it is more convenient than pirating and then pirating would not be an issue. Look at iTunes and DRM free music... the music industry has not failed yet.
SD cards are ridiculous! They are not quick to copy to, especially when you consider HD movies and they aren't talking about just putting them into your PS3 or XBox and running with it... No, you are going to have to connect yet another device to your TV. It's crazy to watch a company that was as big as Blockbuster choose to go down all the wrong routes... But they are and they won't make it if they can't get their act together. I use BB online but will probably be canceling that soon since they think it's a good idea to send the 3rd disc in a series before they send the 1st or 2nd. That and the fact that it is taking up to 4-5 days to get the movies after one is marked as returned. |
