pretty interesting that there are more streamers than bluray subscribers.... just goes to show you that this whole online movie thing is coming faster than anybody thinks.
just imagine how many would be using it if they actually had new releases.
Well it is free with your subscription as opposed to the upcharge and requirement of having a BR player. I'm sure that accounts for quite a bit of it. If you even "just checked it out" you were "served".
common sense would tell you there would be more streamers than blu-ray subscribers. I have a feeling there are more people with computers and high speed internet out there than Blu-ray players. Im still pissed off that every recent release in my que still has a freaking "long wait" on BR. I thought the extra money they were charging for Blu was suppposed to help this problem.
Yep we use online from our Roku and use all the network online stuff as we don't see the value in a cable bill. Hulu, NBC, Fox, etc all offer their content a day or two after it's online. What's the advantage of cable TV? More channels? More stuff we don't watch. Shrug.
Online delivery is the future.
You can BR. We've got two HDTVs and in the end I couldn't care less if it's HD, SD or crappy pixelated junk - I don't watch movies or TV for the sound quality or iamge quality.
I do care if my football is HD but beyond that...whatever...
