Just a reminder: Microsoft launches their download Movie and Television service for the Xbox 360 tomorrow.

This timing is especially good for me, since I just had Comcast come pick up their cable box today. I decided to switch out my box for a card to free up a power-point and input for the TV. I get all of my channels still but no pay-per-view. Enter Microsoft, who will start selling and renting movies and tv shows through the console.

I'll make sure to try out one of each tomorrow and write up my experiences. The most interesting thing to come out of tomorrow's launch is the price point for both shows and movies, which hasn't been officially announced yet.

Too bad you can't transfer shows to the Zune. I happen to be reviewing Msoft's player for the Rocky and was shocked right out of my Chili Pepper socks to discover their otherwise quite adequate online story has absolutely no video content for purchase. What... the... hell? Brian Crecente
