I don't care how they spin it, to get the same quality as a blu-ray (or even HDDVD) the time it would take to download a proper movie would be counted in the days if not a week(s) on a *good* home broadband connection. Who wants to deal with that? For rentals, streaming compressed less than lossless quality is ok, but not for purchasing. If I want to own a movie, I want the physical media and be able to take that media with me...
