Default Comcast to deliver new ultra speed modem; HD downloads to follow?
Check this out:

New Modem To Allow Superfast Downloads
Comcast Chairman/CEO Brian Roberts surprised attendees of the Consumer Electronics Show in Las Vegas Tuesday by unveiling a new cable modem capable of downloading a two-hour movie in high definition in just four minutes. The same film would take more than six hours to download via a high-speed DSL modem, he said, or seven days via a dial-up modem. Roberts said that he expects millions of the modems to be delivered to Comcast subscribers by the end of the year.

This concerns me in relation to Blu-ray's future. Could this really push HD movie downloads mainstream? I always thought the great downfall of movie downloads would be the wait but this would seemingly cure it. Thoughts?
