Netflix announced unlimited video downloads earlier this month.

4 bucks per movie is too much. I pay Netflix about $18 a month and watch 5-6 mailed movies during that time.

If they had added DVR capability to the iTV then it would be worth it.

I have Netflix too, but we’ve had plenty of trouble with them. The DVDs arrive in poor condition - all scratched up and covered with slobber by previous renters. It’s frustrating to be halfway through a movie when the DVD suddenly starts skipping or refuses to play.

The downloadable media option should solve that problem.

I use RedBox. 99 cents a night. Mondays are free. I usually rent on Mondays, rip it to Apple TV and watch later in the week. If its a movie I really want in my collection, I buy the HD version, or I just delete it from Apple TV. The rented ones don’t stay around for long.
