Do you have to wait for the whole movie to download before you can watch? Pick the movie and download part while eating dinner and if at least a certain percentage is done when dinner is over start watching...and at worst there is probably something on your DVR that needs watching. I don't see the download thing as a problem for those that know how to plan.
Can you schedule a download in advance? If you know you want to watch a movie being released tomorrow...can you tell it to download it when it becomes available then watch the movie when you get home.
The downloads offer a lot more flexability over rental...oh and save the gas of driving.
