Engadget HD Podcast 267 - 09.27.2011

This week on the EHD podcast we witness the circle of life, as Sezmi's lights go dark Dish and Blockbuster are proudly showing off Movie Pass. But even with those, Amazon Prime, Netflix, Hulu and Google TV can internet streaming really change the entertainment model? We'll see, but traditional TV providers are fighting back, as seen by Comcast's AnyPlay and DirecTV's updated iPad app. Other potential sources for change include the G.hn powerline networking standard, Facebook's latest twist on social media and a new version of Flash and Air from Adobe. We close things out with a look at what's on our HDTVs this week, press play and see which fall premieres made the cut.
