"Since Vongo is still in beta, I'll give them the benefit of a doubt on some of my complaints. I do want to see better customization options (selecting folders for download, for instance) and I'd like to see different quality downloads that balance bandwidth with quality. If I want to download a 1GB file because the resolution will be a full 720x480, then I should be allowed to. The movie selection was decent, but don't expect this service to replace a DVD service like NetFlix just. I'm hoping we'll see integration with Media Center 2005 or TiVo in the upcoming months. I think this will be critical to the success of the service. Since I don't have a WMV DRM compliant PVP available, I can't speak for that functionality. All in all, Vongo has tremendous potential. If it can deliver through better customization, tweaking of download quality and integration with Media Center, then I'll be hooked."
This is a pretty nice review of the upcoming Vongo service. Starz is really trying to get a leg up on the competition by getting this out the door. It look like with some improvements to the video quality of the movies, this could be a winner.
