There is 0 buffering with ours. They would have to be on a really terrible connection for ours to have issues. Plus we have HD video so really someone on a subpar connection shouldn't even really join an HD site lol I have to totally disagree with you on the download thing. If they were say paying 4.00 per video to allow them to keep the vids ok, but we are talking about hundreds of videos on a site and only paying less than 30.00 to 'view' them. Should always be a rental type agreement on a site that gives 1 months access for a fee. Would be like me walking into blockbuster paying 30.00 taking all the movies I want, and keeping them. Doesn't make good biz sense to let them dl them.
