Topic: If downloadable films is the future what will we put on our shelves?! Forum: JoBlo

Not only that, but internet connection/download speeds are going to have to see a huge amount of improvement to make downloads a feasible medium for movies (especially if HD movies are thrown into the mix). With the average home connection today, a standard def movie would take anywhere from 1.5-3 days to download, and about 7-10 days for an HD movie. I personally don't see people wanting to go through those kind of wait times, and also not be able to use their computer (or have it go painfully slow) for other tasks the entire time it's downloading.
