As from 11th December 2007, Xbox owners with Gold membership will get a fantastic new service via Xbox Live Market Place. A Video Store is open to offer download HD-DVD movie rentals for your Xbox 360. The HD-DVD movies can be watched within a 24hr period after downloading and starting play; or store on your console for up to 14 days, to watch at your leisure.

Standard definition movies are just 250 Microsoft Points (£2.12), while HD 1080p movies are priced at 380 Microsoft Points (£3.20). Warner Bros got the exclusive Xbox contract with a line-up of over three hundred titles available to download from 11-12-07.

Coupled with recent updates to run DIV-X codecs on Xbox hardware, the 360 package is a whole lot sweeter now.
