“In a blog post, the company said the networks will let consumers download a high-definition, full-length feature film in less than five minutes and allow rural health clinics to send 3-D medical images over the Web.”

So you can download a 2 hour movie in 5 minutes... wow. You can do that already, start watching as it downloads.

And how will the rural clinic download using this since these are being put in cities and not in rural areas?

Yup.
Maybe Google hasn't heard of movie streaming. I do that all the time, without even bothering to download anything. Why download when you can stream?
