Vudu looks very enticing, one of the few negatives I see to it is that you can only "own" movies in SD, and they are typically 19.95 from what I've seen. I want HDX for 19.95!!!

It seems to me, and correct me if I'm wrong, VUDU is the download-rental-service that gives a big nod in the direction of quality. It seems to be the only that offers HD downloads with good quality audio, although I've never seen it nor competitors.

I'd still like to see a flat monthly fee option like Netflix. My only gripe about BlockBuster is that their download movies are a charge on top of the current monthly fee.

I guess I'll just have to stick with my current BlockBuster account.
