I don't understand why anyone uses any Netflix or Hulu at any price. I doubt I would even bother signing up if they gave it away for free for crying out loud! I have DirecTV and receive 100+ channels in beautiful HD on the free HD DVR that supply me that I can watch on my 52" LCD HDTV including pretty much all of the movie channels except for Cinemax. I have season passes set for my few dozen favorite tv shows that I like from dramas, reality shows, comedies, sports (MMA) and documentary series and also watch a lot of movies on HBO, Showtime, Encore and Starz.
All of these come over the airwaves from the free antenna on my rooftop in very high quality resolution. The last thing I would want to do is pay to stream or download the same tv shows that cable or satelllite delivers in some compressed format while bogging down my own broadband connection at the same time. The whole idea of watching tv through the internet seems clunky to me, at least at this point in time. It's different if it's some rare footage like something on Youtube, but a professionally shot tv show, I don't understand why I would want the hassle and slowness or dealing with internet streaming even at so-called high quality when I can press a couple of buttons and have the pre-recorded program pop up on my DVR when I come home from working.
