Anyone else notice the file sizes? You can download an almost 2 hour HD movie in roughly 5GB. Curiously, that could fit on a regular ol' DVD. Why do we need Blu-Ray and HD DVD again?
Microsoft said yesterday that so many people were hitting it at once, that everything slowed down, which they were working to address. This same problem occured when they packed on a bunch of videos from E3, and everyone attempted to download those at once. I'm sure it'll improve.
I also heard you can start watching the item after you've downloaded 10 minutes worth of content. Can anyone confirm?
