Xbox Live Video Marketplace Unleashed

High-definition TV shows will be 240 Microsoft Points per episode, and standard-definition TV shows will be 160 Microsoft Points per episode. New release movies in high definition will be 480 Microsoft Points, and standard- definition new release movies will be 320 Microsoft Points each. Classic feature films in high definition will be 360 Microsoft Points, and standard definition will be 240 Microsoft Points. After purchasing a high-definition TV show or movie, gamers can download the standard-definition version at no additional charge.

If you are a media buff then this may be right up your alley. To me, purchasing TV shows for -any- amount of money is too much, but that’s just me. Renting a high-definition movie will cost you around $6, while a TV show will cost around $3. Not that expensive. At least it’s there for the taking should you be interested.
