This tuesday Jumper is the biggest release. I don't know if that's going to spike sales either.

View profile »Tony, believe it or not VOD, especially at my place of work accounts for 30% of all TV revenue. It is possible to surmise that VOD's popularity is growing, but not enough to make a major impact on overall hardware media sales. Keep in mind guys that it also the summer now, and overall sales will plummet over the next few weeks. Attendance in theatres is also up too. Three big shows are hitting theatres in the next coming weeks.

I was actually asking an honest question. I'm not siding with anyone anymore. It just happens to be my opinion that VoD is more and more viable. It's way closer than thn everyone else believes. So i'm not really siding with it, just looking at factual information with current transfer speeds and the new competition between Verizon FiOS and Comcast cable, we'll see speeds go up and prices come down.

View profile »Cheaper than spending THOUSANDS OF DOLLARS for a blu ray setup (because you also NEED a HDTV, expensive receiver to take advantage of blu ray-specific audio, and surround sound speakers).
Convenient. No need to spend gasoline waste to travel & rent (or buy) the movie. Download done in a matter of minutes. Not waiting for DAYS for snail-mail to deliver that rental disc.
VOD will catch up MUCH FASTER than blu-ray... BECAUSE THERE'S NO ADDED HARDWARE TO SPEND.

View profile »True, no HDTV required. You can watch VOD on your 13" black & white TV, and it does look pretty darn good IMO. And although the speaker is a little tinny sounding on such a TV set, sound isn't really important to the movie experience anyway.
