Available in retail stores in the U.S. and Canada starting in early

the growing wealth of digital entertainment available for the console,
including music, movies, television shows and game content. In addition,
Microsoft today dropped the price of its 20GB Xbox 360 console in the U.S.

digital content Xbox 360 offers, and we're giving it to them at no extra
