Xbox LIVE Expands Content Offerings

REDMOND, March 29: Content from A&E Network, ADV Films,
National Geographic and TotalVid.com have all joined the Xbox LIVE content
lineup, while Paramount Pictures and Warner Bros. Home Entertainment have added
HD movie titles to the service.

The new partners add to the more than 1,500 hours of downloadable
entertainment content already available on Xbox LIVE in the U.S. The new
additions include A&E’s Dog the Bounty Hunter, anime releases from ADV Films, National Geographic’s Is It
Real? and a slate of extreme sports content
from TotalVid.com.

Paramount Pictures will offer its feature films for download
in high definition, including Braveheart,
Team America: World Police, World
Trade Center and South Park:
Bigger, Longer & Uncut. Also, for the
first time, Warner Bros. Home Entertainment will be releasing its
direct-to-video movies exclusively in high definition on Xbox LIVE simultaneous
with their availability on DVD, starting with Sublime and later Babylon 5: The Lost Tales.

Downloads on Xbox LIVE have grown in double-digits,
month-over-month, with a 400 percent increase since the service began offering
TV shows and movies late last year.
