Most likely. The content providers (i.e. studios) seem to have a DRM'd download rental model as the ultimate end goal. Fox has come out and even stated that they'd prefer this be the next format, period. It makes them the most cash and gives the consumers the least control over the media. Then again, at $5 a shot its a lot lighter on the wallet than the $20-$30 Blu-rays.
