If I am buying a Blu-Ray disc to watch a movie in HD, why the heck do I want some crappy tiny version to watch on an iPod?! I'd rather the disc be cheaper--and let those who want the digital copy pay the extra $ at iTunes for it.]]>Apr 16th 2008 10:25AMhttp://hd.engadget.com/2008/04/16/study-finds-zany-crowd-willing-to-pay-9-for-earlier-release-h/http://hd.engadget.com/2008/04/16/study-finds-zany-crowd-willing-to-pay-9-for-earlier-release-h/
Oh, also wouldn't do it unless HD. So HD, instant streaming/download and day of release, $9 seems ok. After day of release, price should be lower. ]]>Apr 16th 2008 10:26AMhttp://hd.engadget.com/2008/04/16/study-finds-zany-crowd-willing-to-pay-9-for-earlier-release-h/http://hd.engadget.com/2008/04/16/study-finds-zany-crowd-willing-to-pay-9-for-earlier-release-h/Apr 16th 2008 10:28AMhttp://hd.engadget.com/2008/04/16/study-finds-zany-crowd-willing-to-pay-9-for-earlier-release-h/http://hd.engadget.com/2008/04/16/study-finds-zany-crowd-willing-to-pay-9-for-earlier-release-h/Apr 16th 2008 10:38AMhttp://hd.engadget.com/2008/04/16/study-finds-zany-crowd-willing-to-pay-9-for-earlier-release-h/http://hd.engadget.com/2008/04/16/study-finds-zany-crowd-willing-to-pay-9-for-earlier-release-h/Apr 16th 2008 10:38AMhttp://hd.engadget.com/2008/04/16/study-finds-zany-crowd-willing-to-pay-9-for-earlier-release-h/http://hd.engadget.com/2008/04/16/study-finds-zany-crowd-willing-to-pay-9-for-earlier-release-h/
Sure it's conveniant, I also have an HDTV and no HD Sources but the 360 but 10$ for a movie???? Forget it.

Alternatively, I would love to see a flat-rate XBox/Netflix type of arrangement. I would glad pay a reasonable monthly fee for unlimited HD downloads through my 360.

$9 is ridiculous.

Between Comcast Cable TV, Verizon Fios, Satellite TV, Apple TV, XBOX Marketplace, Amazon Unbox, etc all competing for your business - someone should be able to offer brand new releases in HD for a decent price.

They better act fast though....Netflix and LG are cookin' up something that will have HD new releases downloaded to your TV for a decent monthly subscription rate.]]>Apr 16th 2008 4:10PMhttp://hd.engadget.com/2008/04/16/study-finds-zany-crowd-willing-to-pay-9-for-earlier-release-h/http://hd.engadget.com/2008/04/16/study-finds-zany-crowd-willing-to-pay-9-for-earlier-release-h/

for AppleTV and Vudu, this is very far from realistic because they are not delivering this high-quality HD

for Netflix, no one wants to wait a long time for HD in their queue and therefore Netflix will never enjoy this pricing advantage....

for cable, this won't be realistic for the general public via an affordable monthly cost for a few years

for satellite, not realistic

for FiOS and U-Verse, this may be realistic but there are still limitations (high cost subscription, HD library content choices, portability, one-click no wait, it's all there when you want it type service, your selection, not theirs, etc.)

there is a solution that will enjoy the pricing mentioned.......]]>Apr 18th 2008 3:37AMhttp://hd.engadget.com/2008/04/16/study-finds-zany-crowd-willing-to-pay-9-for-earlier-release-h/http://hd.engadget.com/2008/04/16/study-finds-zany-crowd-willing-to-pay-9-for-earlier-release-h/Apr 29th 2008 6:52PM
