The Zune video store is very interesting... One problem for me is that (in case of the Netherlands) the rentals in zune are too expensive. It's legal to download movies here and this will save us loads of money. I think a price of 1 euro per HD movie (100 MS-points or something like that) would be nice. For this kind of money I won't climb behind my PC anymore to download a movie and willing to give my money to the movie-market. Maybe it's a good idea for the actors to drive smaller cars / live in smaller houses so 1 euro is enough... I also subscribed to the preview program. The Zune video store is very interesting…

As for the prices for renting a movie, low is always better. But I think the price point is OK. It's cheaper to rent a movie online on Xbox than from CDon and SF Anytime, and since the Xbox is always connected to my TV, it's very easy to rent. I watch Three Kings in HD (on a 12 Mbit connection) and it look very good.
