So I'm buying a 360 probably next month, and I have a couple of questions I hope someone here can answer.

1: Have the bugs been worked out? I would suspect after a year on the market, they have. But have there been any reports of problems?

2: Where should I buy it? What store has the best, most reliable extended warranty? I have never felt the need to get one before because I treat my systems with care. But I'm nervous about the quality of the 360. A part of me worries that it won't matter how well I treat it, it could still break down.

Any advice would be appreciated.

Best Buy is best. $50 for 2 years, and if something goes wrong, you can swap the HDD so you can stick with the one you had.

So now you can download movies and shows onto your Xbox and for a price... What the hell? Well, you only RENT the movies, not buy. We just got a DVR in my apartment last week and I already get free rentals from Blockbuster (sign up for their rewards zone thing and you get free rentals for the first half of the week... seriously), so this is entirely useless to me. ALSO, the 360 HD is just way too small. 4 movies (assuming nothing is on your hard drive) and it's all full. Instead of focusing on stupid "OH GODZILLA! WHAT TERRIBLE LANGUAGE!" like this, why don't they give us something like the ability to add on an external hard drive; something like that.

Is it true that the add on comes out today? I thought MS said it would be the 17th.
