Microsoft to Offer HD Video Downloads

To commemorate the first anniversary of the Xbox 360 (which is November 22nd if you're into giving your console birthdays), Microsoft has decided to step into Apple's arena and start offering video downloads via Xbox Live. They've made deals with CBS, MTV Networks, Paramount Pictures, Turner, and Warner Bros. to bring high-definition content to the Xbox 360, making it "the first gaming console in history to provide high-definition TV shows and movies directly to gamers in their living rooms."
