This would be pretty tempting were it not for the horror stories I've heard of people being able to download their videos only once.

Its true you can't redownload movies and series like you can games and DLC. However, as of the last holiday (I believe it was then) you can now backup all your titles to a external harddrive.

I have heard of Sony allowing a re download of movies in extreme situations, however they only allow you to do it once. After that, your hosed.

PS3 does a good job of up converting and the bonus of being able to watch the SD version on PSP is a good enough reason to get these...that is if I wanted to catch up and didn't already use my PC to record & store shows already....

give me a subscription based service like netflix for $10-$20/month and i'll be all over it. $6 for a movie is just too much.

you do know you can use the browser on your ps3 and just go to the netflix page and do all the same stuff you can do on a pc even watch it live

unless something has changed, the PS3's browser does not support Netflix.

Now I see why the blocked Hulu in the browser: So they can charge us to watch otherwise FREE content.

Hulu blocked the PS3, not the other way around. Nice try though.

But you can still watch hulu through a media server like PlayOn if you have it...

If you buy the whole first season of any show, it ends up pretty cheap. Of course I like the DVD/BD versions of seasons because of extras, commentary, making-of material, and other language/subtitle options. Until digital content gets all that, I'll stick with renting through Netflix.
