If I didn't watch sports, I'd canceled my cable TV and just watch off-air HD channels and Netflix instead. Hey, maybe this is something jt can do to cut his cable bill?
you can save as MANY movies as you like in your queue and you can watch it ANYTIME



i have like 100 movies saved gotta get my $8.99's worth a month

I am on 46" 1080p TV... I bet everything would look twice as good if you werent as close to the TV as I am and it is 42" or below.
i'm on 56" 1080p and i'll say the HD is A LOT better quality than streaming the regular movies that aren't HD.

Yeah, I just noticed the catch that most new popular movies are not available on instant play after I signed up. See, I knew there had to be something!

Xbox HD player is antique. Get a PS3, playa
