Both of these announcements are very, very welcome.

NETFLIX!?!? All man that's a low blow...

I was curious as to how Microsoft would branch out to the more casual crowd, this seems pretty good.

The Live Party feature seems really cool. Launching games instantly, sharing media (including Netflix rented movies), good stuff.

I don't really like the new look for the Dashboard, but the features it's bringing are starting to look pretty damn great. The group feature for up to 8 people is awesome; you can simultaneously chat, move your party to various games, or even stream the same movie simultaneously.

Also, Geometry Wars 2 looks smurfing crazy. And Galaga could be good; Pac-Man CE was awesome.

I get the feeling everything they announce which is related to movies is US only. Hmmm.

Oh and when they showed Galaga I thought I was still watching Geomatry Wars. Thats not good.

With regards to the video content, yeah, probably.
