The reason why people don’t use on demand much is because they only have a few episodes. Netflix most of the time has ALL of the episodes. I will stick with netflix for the rest of my life and I will never give a cable company a penny for tv.

Only stupid people pay $4 or more to stream a movie. The future is all you can stream for a monthly price with good selection. If the owners of the movies won’t give the rights to Netflix, or anybody, to stream movies, then they will be stolen, just like what happened to the music industry.

You can argue that it’s wrong all day long, but it doesn’t change the fact that it will, and is, happening. Hollywood can either make their movies available for streaming and get some money, or don’t make them available for streaming, and have people steal them. People don’t want the hassle with physical media anymore. It’s just a fact.

Sorry Gil, but you have no idea what you are talking about. The movies that are 4-10 dollars are new releases. I would like you to find new releases on Netflix.

I don’t beleive it is. The problem is, why Netflix is legally allowed to rent its collective over the net, many of the IPTV licenses are taken up by other parties such as Starz and Universal which each have their own online distrobution system.

Comcast on-demand it is just to expansive.
To rent a movie cost about 4-10 dollars each while on netflix you can watch unlimited movies.
