Check out the following thread in avsforum.com regarding netflix and delays in shipping movies on blu-ray. I got so tired of everything being on long wait or very long wait that i switched over to blockbuster.com. They seem to be alittle better in getting me the blu-ray movies. The best part is i can exchange the movies in the stores. http://www.avsforum.com/avs-vb/showthread.php?t=969946
If it's a good transfer, it should look better than HBO-HD. If it's mediocre like the first Spider-Man movie, it'll look about the same. The one advantage Blu-ray always has over HBO-HD however is that 2.35:1 films won't be cropped on the sides. That looks and sounds outstanding. One of the best Blu-ray discs available.
