Not that half bad of a selection. I for one have not DL'd a movie yet but 3:10 to Yuma looks pretty darn good!

Wow, some actual quality films are coming to Live this month. If you haven't seen King of Kong yet, I wholly recommend it. No other movie from this year caused me to experience so many emotions (light-hearted amusement, then uncontrollable anger, then joyous bliss).
I'd like to rent the Assassination of Jesse James, 3:10 to Yuma, and Michael Clayton, but who knows if I'll ever make the time...

I'll be downloading The Usual Suspects, Michael Clayton, 3:10 to Yuma, and the The Assassination of Jesse James. I have Netflix but their hd movies are always long wait.
I just hope the quality is good, the last hd movie I rented, The Lookout, looked pretty bad.

I use Blockbuster Online to rent HD-DVDs, and having also been a subscriber to Netflix in the past let me tell you that Blockbuster is way better. The HD-DVDs come in 1 business day like normal DVDs, and you can trade in any mailed-in movie at a retail Blockbuster for a free standard DVD rental.
And about the quality - I'm guessing you have a 1080p TV right? We've been spoiled by 1080p Blu-ray and HD-DVDs, and now 720p actually looks a tad grainy, especially for films. lol@people who think the difference between 720p and 1080p is negligible. Surely you must have at least decent eyesight to notice, but the difference is huge.
