Default [Q] Media Hub V. ?????

Ok. So the media hub is out. Looks like you can rent and/or own movies depending on title. The renting is 2.99. I've found own for 9.99 and 12.99. I'm a little worried about paying DVD prices (or somewhat less for some titles) and not getting the DVD, or getting the ability to transfer to another viewing device, ie. dvd, computer. Anyone know what the lowdown is on transfers, etc? I know I've had a hard time trying to find a movie that I can actually put on this phone via dvd ripping from my own dvd library (if that's even legal) or for download from any legal source online. At least the media hub has that going for it.

Anyone know if there are other avenues to actually use the awesome power of this device to watch movies in my palm? Is Media Hub better than?

Ps. I think it is funny that Forrest Gump is listed as comedy. Nice job classifying that one guys.

Nope, just Vibrant as far as I can tell.

Does it bill to your Sprint bill or is there separate payment information?

probably have to stop by the store so they can take a melon baller to your seat cushion.

I'm not really sure how the payment works. I exchanged my phone today due to the back button issue. Now I haven't received the new update yet.

Default Media hub payments

Ok. So I broke down and bought the latest star trek. Basically, you enter your credit card information into Media Hub the app stores it there (actually, I think it stores it on Samsung's server). I don't think there are any alternatives. Now, based on the current download rate and percentage, I should be able to watch it sometime next week.
