Imagine if XStreamHD could do this...
ADVERTS 1
Hollywood Considering - Movie Theater Sidestep
This could be a great use for XStreamHD and would make LOTS of people want one.

Nope this will make me not want XStreamHD $20.00 to rent a movie that is way to high.

Why would people want to shell out the $$$ for XStream HD when they could pay their cable co/satco $20-$30 for the movie?
XStreamHD is a horrible business model and DOA, IMO.

Because you only get the QUALITY for XStreamHD. Cable cant deliver 1080p with the full master audio in 7.1. Originally Posted by Skyhi

DTS MA and TRUEHD are great, don't get me wrong, but they aren't worth $25 more per movie. If I want to see a movie in the theater I go see it and pay extra if not I wait and watch at home (and likely enjoy it more).

I'd expect to be able to buy a BD in 7.1 for $20-$30. Granted, not as quickly.
I suspect XStream is too niche to make it.Reunite Pangaea!
