Re: On Demand Pause and Restart

For the system to compete with DVD rental (which I assume at £3.50 a pop), I must be able to stop the film, and start again later from roughly the same point. Remember VHS?

At the very least, fast forward should be faster.

Am I missing something obvious?
AFAIK the FREE content doesn't mark your last location but when I had the Sammy prior to the V+ any PURCHASED movie had a marker i.e. if I stopped a movie during the end credits, then if i wanted to watch it again i would be asked if i wanted to resume from where i left off or from the start.
