I think you'd be fine with 1 meg up. Usually when I'm watching it fluctuates between 700-1200 Kbps on the player and it streams SD fine. It'll play fine with a 300 Kbps connection. I don't have a Pro, so I'm not exactly sure on HD, but it does a pretty good job with compression.

You'll need more if you want HD. If you have an HTPC or tv tuner in your PC, use something free... like ORB.
