While Australian rumors of
integrated HD DVD drives and
Blu-ray add-ons continue to swirl, Microsoft continues to expand the other way to get HD movies on its console, adding
Paramount movies to
Xbox Live Video Marketplace in the UK. Coming nearly a year after Paramount
jumped onboard the U.S. version, licensing complications continue to delay service rollout in other countries. No word about Canada or other European Xbox 360 owners left with their faces pressed against the glass, waiting for
Transformers downloads to their HDTV, but UK gamers can rejoice in 380 Microsoft Point (3.23 GBP) rentals hitting February 19.
