Ive got a 360 and an external hardrive, can i transfer my movies from the external onto my 360? Also im wondering how netflix works for the 360, can you just watch them on the 36o or do you have to send em to you? How many can you have out at one time? Thanks

for the netflix, as far as the new movies you still have to order the dvds, however, its still fucking awesome. you can add an unlimited amount of movies to your own instant que from the computer and they trasnfeer to xbox automatically (mine has over 450 good ass movies) from their selection, plus with the new dashboard/netflix they automatically give you all sorts of stuff you can access straight from the xbox (tv shows, recently added) all in all its for sure worth it.

i dont know about your first question, but netflix streams it directly to your xbox, so you need a good internet connection for it to work
and i think if you sign up for netflix through your xbox you also get the dvd's by mail if you want them

You can't transfer movies from an external to the internal 360 hard drive. I just keep my TB external plugged in all the time, watch movies through the xbox

That first question about transferring them to the xbox hard drive kinda confuses me as to why you would want to. Unless you are trying to free up space on your external there really is no reason to to take up more space on the xbox with movies and stuff when you could use the space for games.
