Downloaded movies can be watched as soon as they are purchased with no
waiting as the download continues as they are being viewed. HD 5.1 is
not a problem for this reason as file size is of no concern. There is
actually little Blu-Ray content worth watching once you have seen the
quality of Discover Channel and National Geographic videos as far as
I'm concerned. Many are simple re masters.
Rental stores will hang on as long as possible but they used to be
for those that chose not to purchase cable. Now cable is far more
popular so there has to be a steady decline in stores like
Blockbusters. I drive by a store that advertises XXX material. I bet
those will be the last to go. ;)
I don't know about the upload to your media idea unless the gas pump
has USB connection. The idea is to not have to leave your house and
buy on impulse as soon as you see the trailer.
Then there is the Xfinity factor with On Demand that HAS to cut into
rental but this whole discussion is about the demise of the oversized
DVD.
What will 3-D bring to the (coffee) table I wonder.
