Only problem with such high resolutions is download time.

Well, they can't really make movie files less than 100 MB in size and have good quality at the same time. I'm sure this is an issue, but they can create 500-700 MB files with "good-enough" quality, I'd say.

Then again if they give good quality(huge file to download). What if I'm i'm a consumer planning on just watching the movie on my ipod and I do not need that much quality? That I would rather have tons of movies at an acceptable pixel for my ipod and that alone. Rather than just a few movies that are really high quality when I only look at them on my ipod? My point is High quality = less movies on ipod/ good for tv low quality = more movies on ipod / bad for tv to address this problem, when the user goes to buy a movie, he or she should have multiple resolutions to pick from. You simply pick your resolution and download it. If i only look at them on ipods i pick small res. If im a tv guy I choose huge res. Simple as that. I guess we'll have to wait and see.

Well the Apple Store is now offline and the iTunes Music Store states "It's ShowTime". Looks like something big is in the works!
