All these hours you spent downloading, all i do is pay £10 a month and get 2x lovefilm DVD/Blurays at once Thumbs up

Then again our broadband is max 2 mbps so it's just too slow for downloading anything moviewise!


30 mins to download vs 1-2 days postage for the DVD/Blu-ray? Unsure

Wi-fi is simply not up to the job of streaming HD movies yet


LOL! Are you on crack??

An 802.11n WiFi network in good signal conditions is more than capable of streaming HD content.

For a typical downloaded 1080p downsampled BD rip you only need about 1.3 MB/s. If a WiFi N network can't provide that then something is seriously wrong.

I get enough throughput on my WiFi network to stream raw BD rips. (~5.6 MB/s)

(Anyway, I'm sure Fletch worked something out in the 23 months between his question and your answer...)


No I'm not on crack. Dunno

If you know something I dont about streaming HD movies smoothly via wifi then please enlighten me because my 360 and PS3 both stutter and jerk like f*ck.

probably because the ps3 is only rated to 802.11 g, so your speed would only be around 2.75MB/s for your average user.

i've owned a couple of mac laptop's now for the past 7 years and I won't buy anything else. PC's get on my nerves now when things crash all the time etc and can honestly say, there's nowt wrong with my current mac after 2 years of ownership. I'll probably change it next christmas! Just like a car...renew every 3yrs or so Razz
