An editor from a leading tech blog has a moan about some of the problems experienced on the Live video service for Xbox 360. There are no menus, downloaded movies can not be re-downloaded and a few others make up what he's learned about the service.

Problems with Xbox 360 Video Store

•You can't FF or Skip Chapters in a movie until its completely downloaded.

•Also, downloaded movies can't be re-downloaded, even within your rental period.

•You can't download movies on other machines if you're within your grace period, either.

•There are no movie menus, ala DVD.

That's one idiot...of course you can't do things WHILE it's downloading. Just be patient and wait til it's done. Not sure what they mean by re-downloaded, but if you have it on your HDD, why would you re-download it? Same thing goes with Movies on other machines with your same Gamertag, why not just watch the move off of your HDD on the other 360?

the point about not being able to fast forward/skip chapters is the only valid one. and thats just cause windows media is, and always will be a shitty container
