Currently, the only HD available are the Bourne's so I can easily compare my experience with that of the reviewer's above. I clicked the HD versions and watched them instantly (at most 5 mins later) after a quick run to the kitchen). I can say this: the reviewer ought to check his/her broadband connection. I had no delay whatsoever from click to watch.

Yes, the delay is minimum

I'm not big on the idea of download-to-own. At least with a DVD, the studios can't just decide they can not let me play it, and if the company shuts down, there's no risk that my "purchased" movie is lost because an authentication server is shut down. The rental offering is a different question, but my DVD player is long paid for. I'm not interested in buying an expensive box to do things my existing equipment can do already in a simiar form and similar or better quality.
