Microsoft launches Xbox 360 TV, movie downloads

Microsoft is launching a service for Xbox 360s which will let users download movies and television shows via the internet.

CBR Staff Writer November 6, 2006

Beginning Nov 22, Xbox 360 gamers will have access to the full-length TV shows as downloads to own and movies to rent via download from the Xbox Live network.

Microsoft has teamed up with Hollywood studios to offer film downloads including The Matrix, Superman Returns, and Batman Forever.

The software giant says it expects to offer 750 hours of downloadable content when the service launches, rising to 1,000 by the end of the year.

Xbox 360 gamers can access Xbox Live Marketplace with a free Xbox Live Silver membership and a broadband connection.
