Does anyone provide legal movie / dvd downloads...ripping and converting (mp4) dvd's is so slow it would make sense to just buy them ripped...just like all the legal music downloads sites.

It's no wonder people turn to piracy - now I've got a ps3 I'd like to download movies (rental) onto my pc & stream it to the ps3 like I can with my music.

The Ps3 has an online rental store, but the majority of the movies have only 2 channel sound, I want them to have surround sound - not too much to ask surely?

The ones that have 5.1 sound, are generally only available with 5.1 in HD format which costs an extra £1.50 to rent.

The itunes store movies have 5.1 sound, but beause of their DRM I can't watch them in the comfort of my living room, I'd have to crouch round my computer.

I've said for years I think the studio's are missing a big chunk of the market,
why not introduce a membership scheme where you can download the movies direct from source at full speed,no packaging no deliveries

they could do the movies for there profit margin and it would still be a fraction of the cost

$35 for a bluray yeah right

iTunes Store

my understanding is that the files are DRM protected...I can not then go and play them on another media pc (other than perhaps an authorised itunes pc)

Netflix is available on the Xbox 360, but again it's rental only (I think)
