While the interface and graphics are indeed smashing, the biggest thing about this company is the media content. Ten times that of AppleTV, 20 independents plus all 8 of the major studios vs only 3 by Apple, HD films coming in January on this same box. Also, no buying a Blu-Ray or HD-DVD only to get only half of the content avilable. Goodbye to Netflix and Blockbuster. The DVD will die, in my opinion.

I agree with everything said so far. If you pay $1000 or $2000 for a nice monitor, you want to have content. VUDU has more downloads than anyone, and it’s due to double in 6 months, Hi Def very soon, TV a la Tivo also very soon, and good techie stuff. I think those who cling to Blockbuster now and Netflix, will switch. The DVD will die and VUDU has the best download technology by far.

The movie studio wars over Blu-Ray and HD-DVD have stopped the sales of Hi Def movies in its tracks. VUDU may be the best thing for the movie studios, since they offer High Def with their technology, everything is available from all of the studios, and consumers are not scared that their Blu-Ray or HD boxes and collections will suddenly be obsolete. VUDU took away the bottleneck. Good job.

I’ve had it as a beta tester for four months, and the content continues to improve weekly. I will never again go to a store or mail in DVDs. I certainly not pay $800 to get a Blu-ray and then $35 to have to buy each HI Def movie. With VUDU you can buy if you want, but generally rent at a far, far better price. The graphics and the interface are great, by the way, but the content is where they are way ahead.

I’ve had it about two weeks, and it’s a 10. Great graphics. Very easy to use. My wife loves it.

Unbelievably sharp. Good content. Forget the DVDs. They were last year’s technology, maybe the technology of ten years ago, but not the technology that’s available today. Click and the movie starts. That’s it.

Agree – it’s a ten. Graphics great. 1080p. Never use Netflix again. 10 times content of AppleTV. Best hope for movie studios because it avoids the whole Blu-ray division. Great for us as well. Much, much cheaper than buying basic or Hi Def movies. Very user friendly, easy. My wife also is crazy about it.

Real good, but they don’t have first run movies right away. But it is good and very quick and sharp.

Okay Vudu Lovers like me. I use to rent from Netflix & Blockbuster 3 4 weeks ago that’s to Vudu those renting days are over, Every time I receive a DVD in the mail, it comes scratched , cracked or worse; delivered to the wrong address, I really don’t care about Blue Ray Disc since it cam out, to me it the corporation who makes them want more money for it and I refuse to buy it because I would have to find space in my Studio Apartment to store them. Vudu came to mind one year agao and I was hesitating to buy it or Apple TV. I had purchased Vudu instead and I’m satisfied with it. A ll that i ask for the Vudu Engineers and Sofware guys if they can add Hullu to the Vudu Lab, so I don’t have to watch it on my 20 inch Mac instead watch it through Vudu on my 37 inch HDTV. last I don’t care how expensive the hdx movies are, just that I can watch a movie when I choose to do so, not wait 2 days for a DVD to be mailed and get it cracked or scratched.
