Sam, I guess if they can make TV movies then they can make web movies. The difference is the TV movies play when they are scheduled and the web movies play when you click on them. I wonder if the web movie will be complete with advertisements. <g> If we could stream the movie to our disk drives we would not have to worry about overcrowding hurting Internet speed and disrupting the movie. Also, they could improve the quality of the movie and take more time to send the movie than it takes to play it. Streaming movies over traditional telephone modems are not great quality because they can't get enough continuous data over the lines. Regards, Mark M
