Are they joking???
I just checked out CinemaNow, and PPV rentals are
$4 and 'download to own' sets you back $15. My
local Mom-and-pop video store can beat that rental
price by almost a factor of 2, and many stores
(Target/BestBuy/CircuitCity/etc) sell DVDs for $15
or less. Of course, the movies on CinemaNow are
a bit obscure (which is a plus) but I would think
that they would at least need to be competitive with
local outlets (not to mention Netflix).
How many people far from a metropolitain area have
high speed internet access anyways?
