Default [AFP] Netflix films on the xbox 360
Microsoft has announced an alliance with Netflix in which the popular US online video rental service's members will be able to download films for viewing using Xbox 360 videogame consoles.

The exclusive partnership comes as Microsoft strives to expand its popular Xbox Live online system which lets console owners play videogames with friends and download films, television shows and music via the Internet.

Netflix lets members download films for viewing on computers and maintain online queues of DVDs that are mailed to homes.

Xbox Live service users will be able to route Netflix film downloads to Xbox 360 consoles to watch on televisions

People with Xbox Live and Netflix accounts will also be able to share downloaded videos via the Internet to "watch them together despite sitting on different couches," said Xbox Live vice president John Schappert.

"You can now share Netflix movies with a Live Party at no extra cost," Schappert said while making the announcement in Los Angeles on the eve of an Electronic Entertainment Expo videogame industry gathering.

Share a video at no extra cost, eh? I think Microsoft just scored a win/win situation.

Got some foil, folded it into a ram sized rectangle, then rubbed it on the floor to make it a bit smooth ^_-. There's the ram also (2GB, 667MHz)
