amazon's video on demand image quality

Wed Sep 01, 2010 10:50 pm

Figuring here's the right place.
Has anyone else tried this and gotten horrible image quality? I just tried it with a coupon I had for 30 Days Night and the IQ is atrocious, like painfully bad. Is it just me (or maybe my monitor) or have other people noticed this?
Ugly people have sex all the time. We wouldn't have 6 and a half billion humans if you had to be beautiful to get laid.

it depends a lot on your connection speed.. but I'm on 12Mbps connection and it still is merely ok quality.

But I chose the D/L then watch option. I don't know, I'm OK with the idea of the service but if the IQ isn't better it's not worth it for me. Pity.
