XBOX MOVIES DOWNLOAD SERVICE
The video rental store received another blow today with Microsoft launching an Australian full movie download service.
Movies on Demand allows Xbox 360 owners with a broadband connection to watch standard and high-definition movies with no download waiting times.
Microsoft spokesman David McLean said more than 100 movies were on offer today and new releases, such as Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen and Star Trek, would be available next month.
New release movies would be available online a few weeks after rental and before Foxtel.
Movies will cost about $4, with new releases about $7.
Movies on Demand is part of an update that is available by logging on to Xbox Live.
The movie service is available to users with a free Xbox Live Silver membership and Gold member subscribers.
