It may look fine on a 20" monitor but when you play them on a larger screen they show significant compression artifacts, especially with fast motion, and look horrible overall. That's the reason downloads won't replace HD-DVD/Blu-Ray for a long time. ]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Jason M]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Jan 7th 2008 12:19PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on SyncTV demoing proof-of-concept device for 1080p playback of downloads]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2008/01/07/synctv-demoing-proof-of-concept-device-for-1080p-playback-of-dow/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2008/01/07/synctv-demoing-proof-of-concept-device-for-1080p-playback-of-dow/</guid><description><![CDATA[Why do you say that? On Comcast cable you can download a full 1:1 Blu-Ray/HDDVD rip of any movie in about half a day (or less) and it wouldn't be compressed at all! What's to say they won't offer something like this? It's going to be the future..]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[pcmike]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Jan 7th 2008 12:33PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on SyncTV demoing proof-of-concept device for 1080p playback of downloads]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2008/01/07/synctv-demoing-proof-of-concept-device-for-1080p-playback-of-dow/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2008/01/07/synctv-demoing-proof-of-concept-device-for-1080p-playback-of-dow/</guid><description><![CDATA[A Blu-ray Disc with a high bitrate can be 40-50GB.  Just imagine how badly compressed these downloads will be to get them to a manageable size of 2-5GB.

Doesn't sound like an ideal solution to me. Just search for it on google and you'll see tons of people this is happening to.<br>]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Jason M]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Jan 7th 2008 1:32PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on SyncTV demoing proof-of-concept device for 1080p playback of downloads]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2008/01/07/synctv-demoing-proof-of-concept-device-for-1080p-playback-of-dow/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2008/01/07/synctv-demoing-proof-of-concept-device-for-1080p-playback-of-dow/</guid><description><![CDATA[What makes you guys think they won't offer the entire disc (the whole 40-50G)?

Most important to me, however, is what happens to the downloaded file? WIll it vaporize in 2 days? Will it stay permanently on my HD? Digital downloads are the future in my mind, but will only take off if/when the downloads are not rentalware. I'll pay $20-$30 for an uncompressed HD movie that I can download and keep locally. It takes Netflix and BB a day to deliver a movie anyways, I don't mind taking a day to download a movie either.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Rick]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Jan 7th 2008 8:16PM</pubDate></item></channel></rss>
