NY Times article (free reg. req'd)

Big multi-Gig hard drives may change everything.

"Made by Samsung Electronics, the receiver is basically just a 160-gigabyte hard drive [with 100 movies stored in it] with a small antenna that automatically downloads 10 new movies a week using a wireless signal, replacing 10 other titles. That signal is tucked into broadcast signals from TV stations owned by ABC and from PBS National Datacast. The receivers are not for sale; a $7 monthly fee is charged once users sign up for the service and the receiver is delivered."
