as it went out of Beta on Monday, June 30th. DirecTV has announced that DirecTV On Demand has about 4,000 titles, ranging from short form previews and behind the scenes featurettes to the latest HD PPV offerings. NBC has started providing SD and HD On Demand programs (for a price), and Starz and Showtime have movies available. Not all channels have a VOD counterpart, but it is easy to find the ones that do-just add a "1" to the channel number. Thus, since Starz is on channel 520, Starz On Demand is on 1520.
DirecTV On Demand meets all the criteria of your comparison, and except for the PPV and NBC programing, does not cost anything to access.

I am preparing an update to the article where I will be adding reviews of both DirecTV OnDemand and possibly Netflix Watch Instantly, even though that is mostly a streaming service.
Stay tuned,
