Microsoft has announced plans for the 360 to be able to download and stream On Demand standard and 720P High Def movies to your 360. Obviously they aren't going to be giving it away for free (so for some "mateys" out there this wont be attractive) but MS has said pricing will be in line with iTunes and other similar services.
Here is a list of what they expect to be available by years end (less than 2 months)
Adult Swim
Robot Chicken, Aqua Teen Hunger Force
CBS
CSI, Survivor, Star Trek
Comedy Central
South Park, Chappelle's Show
MTV
The Real World, Pimp My Ride
Nickelodeon
Avatar: The Last Airbender, SpongeBob SquarePants
Nicktoons Network
Skyland, The Nicktoons Network Animation Festival
Paramount Pictures
Nacho Libre, Jackass: The Movie
Spike TV
Carpocalypse, Raising the Roofs
Nascar.com
Race Rewind
UFC
The Ultimate Fighter, UFC: All Access
VH1
Breaking Bonaduce, Hogan Knows Best
Warner Bros. Home Entertainment
The Matrix, Superman Returns, Batman Forever
I doubt they will let these be downloaded to an external HDD, but it sure would be nice rather than forcing us to buy an inevitably overpriced larger HDD. I also dont think a larger HDD will be announced until a dashboard update which will allow backing up crucial data to a USB drive (please oh please give us that easy option for backing up our profiles and saves and games)
