A quick Google search comes up with Audials and Playlater.  It does not appear 
to be rocket science.

I'd think if someone could figure out a way to get the movies from RAM, they 
could also figure out a way to capture them from a stream.

out a way to be able to download them and put them on the Internet for free.

  It's a licensing issue... that's why "streaming" is OK.

    That 187MB translates to only about 11.25 GB per hour.  Why not stick in a 
32GB memory and be done?  That would be almost 3 hours of buffer.

      It's really too bad that the devices that support all these streaming 
services can't have a larger buffer. I'm sure it's part of their licensing 
deals, but if they could buffer 60 seconds of stream (at any quality), they 
would have much fewer support calls for streaming issues, etc.

      Using Netflix's 25Mbps for 4k, that works out to 187.5MB of storage 
space. At current RAM prices, you can buy a 256MB module for $15 full retail... 
so places like Samsung can probably buy them in quantity for less than $2. 
Seems like it would be worth it to pay an extra $10 for a TV/DVD/PS4/Wii-U 
device that could handle 60 seconds of video.

        That’s pretty cool.



        You can do 4k direct from Youtube.



        Several of the ones I’ve tested are sustained around 20-30Mbps.



        But on my network it tends to burst to 90Mbps then sit around for a 
while, then burst back to 90Mbps.



        I think the 4k will require a lot of optimizations before it works on 
the built in TV’s.
