One problem I'm running into right now is that my DSL connection is only 3Mbps (when it works) and that's the fastest I can get here. SD content streams fine, but HD stuff is no go a lot of the time. Guess it's time to see what kind of a connection I can get from Comcast. I just wish we had the broadband options/rates places like the UK seem to have.

At least this makes it sound better and cheaper across the pond...
