I already have 10Mbps cable and video downloads still poke along. It takes 2.5-3 hours to download an HD movie from Xbox Live Marketplace (and at least 45 minutes until you you can begin playing it due to buffering issues).

The problem isn't as simple as the pipes. There's the servers too. And that doesn't; even begin to touch the crappy selection.

I'm won't be giving up my Netflix membership anytime soon.
