Probably so, depends how long I drool on the bar across the street checking out the new bartender that's the spitting image of Cameron Diaz with black hair and tattoos.

Download and install took under 5 minutes for me. I signed up for the $8.99 Netflix plan and probably keep it. My one DVD at a time will probably be going to something the family really wants to see.

Anyway, currently watching Dan in Real Life over XBL. As said before, a limited selection for instant streaming but with NXE out now I'm sure the instant streaming selection will (or should) increase dramatically.

For all of those talking about more avatar options and whatnot, I heard on X-Play last night that Microsoft will be updating and releasing *several* packs of *stuff* throughout the next 6 months, they says.

Anyone else having a problem playing music from a portable device (for me, MP3 player)? I tried it 3 times last night in game and once on the dashboard and just got the 'Please Wait' screen until I got impatient. Same thing this morning.

No... my iPod plays just fine over my 360, after having to download some 4.64mb update.

News came out saying the first avatar pack will be free...meaning the ones after that will probably be for money.

That would be 8.99 per month.

I have seasons 1-4 of The Office on my queue, so I have been using the Netflix feature quite a bit! I've also got some other series on there. I think it's much better than having Netflix send it through the mail, as it may take a while to watch and you won't have anything else coming until you send that one back (unless you allow more movies to be sent at a time, which costs more of course).

Im sure theres something about that in their "terms of service" agreement.....but I almost fell asleep reading through the first half of it. I hate it how they make those stupid things so long. Just get to the point and let us know what the new additions were and let us be.
