What does everyone think to the iminent possibility of downloading movies and t.v shows straight to your 360 hard-drive.

Myself i think that i'll hold off the shiney new HD DVD player now for a larger (unconfirmed) HDD.

Been thinking about this all day - read an article on free TV downloads if your willing to watch the adverts (like we wouldn;t go make a cup of tea/get a beer while we wait) which could offset the cost of downloading tv to your xbox/other online device.

Personally I do 95% of my series viewing on my laptop as it is allot more convienient than making sure I am sat down in time for the start of my show..

I would jump at the option - but I'm not going to pay anything for the privelege and I don;t think many other people will either..

As long as the prices stay down i still think that the movies might be a worth while venture as blue-ray and hd-dvd have i while yet to develop any kind of decent selection of content.
