The time that it takes at the moment to download HD from Vudu is just shy of 4 hours so that is a disadvantage. The nice thing about the box(service) is that you can sit down and have a movie ASAP, no driving or wait at the mail box, we also have Netflix, but haven't rented from them since Vudu sent me the box. I remember when Netflix started no one thought they would make a go of it , look now.I don't think Vudu wants to take over the movie rental business just to get a share of it. Like I said today is rainy,ice in some areas, the kids are off from school and the movies are NOW
