And that 720P download is probably compressed to shit. <br><br>Don't get me wrong, I appreciate Apple's efforts. I think their stuff is awesome. But maybe this Apple TV is still a beta product due to bandwidth ceilings. ]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[FrankTheCrank]]></dc:creator><pubDate>May 1st 2008 9:48AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Apple iTunes to compete "day-and-date" with DVD releases -- Wal-Mart weeps (now official)]]></title><link>http://www.engadgethd.com/2008/05/01/apple-itunes-to-compete-day-and-date-with-dvd-releases-wal/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadgethd.com/2008/05/01/apple-itunes-to-compete-day-and-date-with-dvd-releases-wal/</guid><description><![CDATA[Itunes video and audio is so crappy and yet people will pay for it.

The rest of the stuff that you can actually BUY is still only "near DVD quality". <br><br>So you get to pay 15 bucks to own a crappy compressed version of a movie that can be had from Best Buy or Amazon for about the same price.  DVD's look OK on a 46" screen, but iTunes stuff really shows its weakness at that size.<br><br>Day and date is the least of iTunes's problems.  The video quality is what they really need to address right now.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[minimalist]]></dc:creator><pubDate>May 1st 2008 1:33PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Apple iTunes to compete "day-and-date" with DVD releases -- Wal-Mart weeps (now official)]]></title><link>http://www.engadgethd.com/2008/05/01/apple-itunes-to-compete-day-and-date-with-dvd-releases-wal/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadgethd.com/2008/05/01/apple-itunes-to-compete-day-and-date-with-dvd-releases-wal/</guid><description><![CDATA[DVD, not Blu-Ray?<br><br>Yawn......<br><br>]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Big Wizz]]></dc:creator><pubDate>May 1st 2008 10:05AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Apple iTunes to compete "day-and-date" with DVD releases -- Wal-Mart weeps (now official)]]></title><link>http://www.engadgethd.com/2008/05/01/apple-itunes-to-compete-day-and-date-with-dvd-releases-wal/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadgethd.com/2008/05/01/apple-itunes-to-compete-day-and-date-with-dvd-releases-wal/</guid><description><![CDATA[Sorry, brain fart<br><br>DVD, not High Def?<br><br>Yawn....]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Big Wizz]]></dc:creator><pubDate>May 1st 2008 12:53PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Apple iTunes to compete "day-and-date" with DVD releases -- Wal-Mart weeps (now official)]]></title><link>http://www.engadgethd.com/2008/05/01/apple-itunes-to-compete-day-and-date-with-dvd-releases-wal/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadgethd.com/2008/05/01/apple-itunes-to-compete-day-and-date-with-dvd-releases-wal/</guid><description><![CDATA[Still waiting to buy HD content.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Sixfive190]]></dc:creator><pubDate>May 1st 2008 12:05PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Apple iTunes to compete "day-and-date" with DVD releases -- Wal-Mart weeps (now official)]]></title><link>http://www.engadgethd.com/2008/05/01/apple-itunes-to-compete-day-and-date-with-dvd-releases-wal/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadgethd.com/2008/05/01/apple-itunes-to-compete-day-and-date-with-dvd-releases-wal/</guid><description><![CDATA[I'm tired of this. Why would you spend $15.00 for a digital file that will only play in your house or on your iPod? <br><br>Blu-ray is the absolute best in picture and audio quality. I feel like Apple and the media are doing everything in their power to undermine this. And fortunately I don’t think it is working.<br>.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[dan]]></dc:creator><pubDate>May 1st 2008 1:43PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Apple iTunes to compete "day-and-date" with DVD releases -- Wal-Mart weeps (now official)]]></title><link>http://www.engadgethd.com/2008/05/01/apple-itunes-to-compete-day-and-date-with-dvd-releases-wal/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadgethd.com/2008/05/01/apple-itunes-to-compete-day-and-date-with-dvd-releases-wal/</guid><description><![CDATA[@dan<br><br> I agree 100%. Plus people were up-in-arms about the "DRM" that is on BD.  Please: Apple is the most DRM infested company on the planet.  Not to mention they want a monopoly, and have one with ipod/Apple Tv/iTunens.  If anyone had a problem with BD for their "monpoly"  I really hope they are not buying shit movies from apple.  ]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[mitch]]></dc:creator><pubDate>May 1st 2008 4:22PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Apple iTunes to compete "day-and-date" with DVD releases -- Wal-Mart weeps (now official)]]></title><link>http://www.engadgethd.com/2008/05/01/apple-itunes-to-compete-day-and-date-with-dvd-releases-wal/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadgethd.com/2008/05/01/apple-itunes-to-compete-day-and-date-with-dvd-releases-wal/</guid><description><![CDATA[Have they made it possible to watch HD content from their store on any iTunes device, or is it still locked to Apple TV?  ]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[nathan]]></dc:creator><pubDate>May 1st 2008 4:51PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Apple iTunes to compete "day-and-date" with DVD releases -- Wal-Mart weeps (now official)]]></title><link>http://www.engadgethd.com/2008/05/01/apple-itunes-to-compete-day-and-date-with-dvd-releases-wal/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadgethd.com/2008/05/01/apple-itunes-to-compete-day-and-date-with-dvd-releases-wal/</guid><description><![CDATA[That's great...
