I prefer quality, hence I do not use Netflix.
Most of the time my films are via Blu-Ray however if it starts raining or the weather goes bad a option is to download a film, which takes a long time.
Also considering files will only get bigger, especially with UHD and then pushing resolutions even further will only create massive video files.
I'd say anything from 1Gb to 10Gb connections will do fine, eventually, they will be available..

Your logic doesn't make sense. You admit to watching blu-rays generally - these do not magically and instantly appear as you need them, you have to either order them on-line or go out and buy them. Either way, there's a substantial wait involved, from at least 24hours if ordering online to a few hours drive to the shop. Even if you happen to live next door to an Asda, you can't realistically expect to go in, pick a film, pay for it and get out in less than 5 mins. Yet you don't generally sit there and think that you fancy watching a film, then go to the shops and buy one, you tend to buy them in advance with the intention of watching them later. Why are online downloads so different? You download the films you want to watch in advance and they're there for you when you need them. So what if it takes 5 mins to download, you should really have a few downloaded at a time (at least) to watch when you're ready.
