Digital Downloads wishlist...

[crazzeto]

So, I'm just curious what everyone's wish list of features in a perfect digital download service would be. I'll kick it off with a few of my ideas (some borrowed from real services).

1). Indefinate redownloads.
2). At least 5 autherized devices
3). Option for guest devices (so you can watch content you own at a friends place).
4). Portable device integration, would also allow for being plugged in at a friends place for viewing in a HT.
5). Speacial features - got to have them!
6). Service capable of packaging downloads a-la-carte, i.e. if I want full on with all SF's I can get that, if I want bare bones video 1 audio track I can get that too (at a discount).
7). Ubiquitous standard - preferably industry derived, but I guess defacto would work too.
8). Allows for use of PC as a file server/media hub....

So did I miss anything? What else do you guys want to see?

The pricing model is important. I'd like to see a flat rate rental option as per netflicks. The big difference would be the concept of one-disc-at-a-time versus say five or eight, that entire tier system would no longer be relavent. Every one will have unlimited access to the entire worlds back cataloge of movies (old and new) for a fixed monthly rate. Who ever introduces this option first will win the download race.

I can see that, perhaps have an HDM tie in like Mp3's have with audio CD's... If you want to watch it on your flat rate then fine you can but only on your set of autherized devices, if you want to burn to say bluray then you need to "purchase" the content for say $10/$15.

I wish they would make a movie pass for 30 bucks are something like that and I guess have like a 4 movie downloads a week limit.

I also wish they would charge 1.99 for an HD version of the movie of the week
