    Tv programs available for downlaod on mediaplace?

    Logged onto the marketplace lastnight, and thought it was really good to see that a South park episode was available to download!

    Hope this is something that may happen on a more regular occurance, due to the fact that it already seems available in america in some form or another.

    Could this be the start of something great for the Xbox?

    I certainly hope so, but has anyone else seen anything on possible future programs appearing?

    See Video Marketplace in America.

    Apparantly, people that live in Europe land aren't good enough to have it (and the fact they can't sort out the licensing with studios for Europe due to the fact there so many different TV networks showing stuff at different times in different countries).

    I think its a shame that they caught onto people in europe registering silver accounts as U.S. ones.

    Why can't it all just be sorted out. I blame Rupert M and Sky TV for hoovering up the rights for everything. It's really probably got hee-haw to do with him, but I need to vent some frustration

    afaik you can still register with a US account but the Xbox live points have been made region specific

    you can buy points from US sellers on ebay, with the goos exchange rate it makes it quite good value

    god knows why they made south park into HD, it barely looks any different.

    From the other stuff on HD on Xbox Live Video Marketplace (e.g. CSI, UFC fights) really benefits from being HD, South Park doesnt really
