MS isn't referring to NOW but the future, and I find it funny how a lot of people here seem ...scared??... that digital distribution might be the future and that you're $400-$500 Blu ray machine that plays game might be obsolete before it even becomes maintstream.
No worries though, I probably feel the same if I had been suckered into Sony's promises.. |
Digital distribution is the future. It will start to be a reality in the next generation, and you may see diskless consoles 2 generations from now. That's 15 - 20 years from now. So why is MS talking about it now. Is it to divert attention from their pathetic attempt to prop up hd dvd?

Yes, if HD-DVD had won, there is no way in hell MS would be pushing digital downloads.

And Netflix would of been on the PS3??
|
Nope, currently, Netflix only works on Microsoft's OS's, because they are the only ones with accredited players. It's a copy write thing (why DL does not work on a Mac yet).
My guess is Netflix would be on the 360, and Microsoft would be touting it as a niche market application, and not much else.
