What is up with this stuff beeing only US? Themes etc.?

Microsoft and especially the xbox section should put alot more effort in getting all the content and features world wide. Major only brings it up on the podcast as if it´s something he doesnt wanna hear about. We were hearing that the Video marketplace was going to launch soon in europe when the 360 got out, now 3 years later nothing has changed and you have nothing more to say...

Im in sweden here and we have no community games, no inside xbox, no netflix and no video marketplace. Whats even more strange is that we in many cases have more mature market with higher broadband penetration and speeds so the demand for stuff like this is very much here.

I know netflix and videomarketplace is alot to ask since the studios are a bunch of old farts but stuff like themes, dont release them at all for free if its not worldwide. Inside Xbox which is content that you own? Community games?

US only. Sucks.

Getting pretty sick of getting treated as second-class citizens because we don't have a US account. Particularly grating is the Netflix issue.

I realise it's the content providers who are the problem here, but I think it's in Microsoft's interests to retain customers that they put pressure on these providers to get some sort of agreement in place. It's only serving to alienate customers.

I've had an Xbox since its release, been on Live since it launched, had a 360 since release but I'm really getting disillusioned with the whole thing.

Some sort of feedback on the show would be great, just to tell the international community where things are with this sort of thing. I realise there are PR people for Xbox around the rest of the world, but (and take this as the highest compliment) people come here for all their Microsoft news for Xbox.

P.S. Thanks for The Guild. We can actually watch that and it's nice to see MS supporting the makers of this great series by providing them with MSN and XBL hosting.

The NXE has to be the worst system for trying to find content. This stuff may be new but it doesn't show up under new content for pics/themes, you have to search through all the menus to find it. They really need to put an area that actually has new stuff or free stuff in it. It's like they are trying to keep people from finding the free themes/pics.

Free theme (dead space) not available outside of the US? How stupid is THAT!?

Also, it's not NXE (premium)?

Nothing free for Europe (France, UK, Germany, Spain ...) as usual. Just good to pay for xboxlive servers second zone.

We are beginning to get tired of this stupid policy of the xbox360, like :prices of games and accessories unrelated to the exchange rate euro-dollar ...

I am unable to download the Star Trek pictures theme from my Xbox 360 or from Xbox.com

There seem to be a glitch when it comes to downloading movie themes or pictures.
