Let me know when the content is in 1080p with lossless audio, and no hiccups in the streaming of the playback and offered for a reasonable price, then I might be interested... until then I'm very happy with physical media.

I'm with you. $5 for second rate picture and bottom of the barrel sound. No thanks.

Does this Panasonic IPTV rollout include the BD60/80 or just VIERAcast TVs?

I totally agree with you guys. I didn't want to knock it too hard but, man... Who is saying that downloads are going to be the death of Blu-ray?

Not while a pulse yet rattles in my eardrums is compressed two channel my HT audio of choice.

That is a lot for convenience, for me it is. I can schedule a run to Blockbusters on the way to some other destinations and have 108p and HD sound for the same price

...and have 108p...

When your rockin' 108 lines, progressive is the only way to fly.

HD movies are not currently available for viewing on your computer

I don't understand why so many of these services are only available through a special box which needs to be purchased. I already have netflix, but I would try the service at least once just to see how well it works. Sometimes if I want to watch something and I don't feel like waiting for netflix to deliver it I will still drive down to blockbuster. If I could watch it intsantly in hd, I might go that route, but not if I need to buy a special box that runs ~$100 to $200.
