Dude, The download speed over the VHF television airwaves (remember that, before Cable and Satellite TV?) will be between 4.5 Mbps and 5.5 Mbps, which is about 3x faster than a typical Cable/DSL internet connection. And when HDTV becomes more popular, the same movies will be transmitted over the DTV airwaves at approx 8~10 Mbps. At those speeds you'll easily have 10 movies overnight. Also (eventually) the movies that will be available will be those movies that have just left theaters but are not yet available to rent or buy. Trust me, I used to work there.

You still watch movies on a TV? That's so 1980's.
