Default HD Internet TV?

Just wondering if someone can help fill in the state of internet broadcasting and HD.

In my mind, I can see something like this...

Broadband internet PC downloads content...caches to harddrive to provide a smooth feed (akin to what the adobe flash player does)...from there the computer video card has an HDMI output? or a separate HDMI OUT card? that I would send to my receiver as an auxillary input...from the receiver to the TV.

Is this feasible and/or possible to do yet? Be awesome to put something like ESPN 360 on my TV. But I don't think any of the internet broadcasts are of any measurable picture quality...HD takes up a fair amount of bandwidth.

Secondly...with tetrabyte harddrives becoming so cheap...are we at a point where we can put numerous blu-rays on our harddrives and stream movies to the TV via software instead of using a disc in a BD player? Sort of like having Netflix server on your own home computer.
