HD was to be VUDU's primary selling point when compared to other VOD services. Couple that HD content deficit with the hoop$$$ they have to go through to get their devices wireless. It's laughable. VUDU is a one trick video pony and not a very good one at that. I warned them when I was beta testing the VUDU box that Apple TV and other VOD services could quickly eclipse them.

It was pretty interesting reading. I particularly got a chuckle from the guy who said he'd put up with the lack of new release HD to gain the (legendary) VUDU quality. What a trooper! ;-) If Apple gets better treatment from the studios on HD releases, the reason for it is clear. iTunes is a very popular and powerful player in the market. So, if I were a studio head, I'd certainly know where to devote my attention -- to wherever I can move the most content and derive the greatest revenue. Thanks for the tip Eddie.
