I’d love to have the ability to LEGALLY stream movies that are newly released so as long as the price is decent.

That’s not going to happen any time soon.
Studios have stock in theaters. If we all could sit in the privacy of our homes and watch 1st run films, who would go to a theater?

It's coming. My wife and I just paid $9.99 to stream Bachelorette on demand in HD. It won't be released to theaters until this Friday but for the last couple of weeks it has enjoyed huge success Video On Demand. The studio bigwigs are taking notice. Other titles are also enjoing "pre-theater" VOD releases, granted not the huge blockbusters, but smaller less expensive films aimed at grown-ups.

Vudu streams newer films for $6 or $7 a title I think. It's basically a video on demand service equivalent to the one provided by the cable provider except it uses IP streaming and sometimes has movies not available through the standard cable provider on demand service. I got free trial credit and watched a couple of movies, worked great.
