Most people listen to songs over and over but few watch a movie more than once or twice, which explains why the studios are so keen on pushing a rental/subscription model. The rental/subscription model has been wildly successful for movies already (think NetFlix -> Blockbuster) but there has never been a widely successful music rental market that I'm aware of, largely because of the difference in the way the media are consumed.

I don't mind paying for it, as long as it is: inexpensive, without advertising, and available in a format such as DivX at a decent resolution. I love this, and I hope that more studios do this.

I agree with Micheal TV shows should be Ad supported and with a client like Peer Impact that uses Geo Location as one of its netwoking features it would be possible to target advertising effectivly .Download to Own should be for seasons and the usage rules need to be lightened up but remeber this is a whole New World for the Studios .... One of the features of Peer Impact that you did not point out is that they give uploaders a system credit for re-distibuting content and they already have a established p2p network with music and games for sale .

The industry loves it, but I'm not sure how it's going down with users (it's darned hard to find stats on these things). My hunch is that it won't be all that huge - it's like Grouper (originally a download) vs YouTube (web-based).

We need to see saturation in this market. But I really think the right price point is...zero. These companies are ultimately competing with tivo and media centers. Yeah, I agree.
