Video Marketplace Melts Xbox Live: Call Support to get Points Back
>> From techdigs.net:
[QUOTE]
The interest and anticipation for HD movies from the Xbox Live Marketplace is causing the service to buckle under all the traffic. Currently working on a review of the new service, TechDigs.net has been trying to download a ~6GB HD movie since the service launched. It looks like the Xbox Live service only gives you a couple of tries to download movies. For us, the download failed twice and we had to resort to calling Xbox Live support in order to get our points back so we could try again.

Thirty minutes later, a helpful tech support supervisor stated, "...we are having a lot of trouble with the Video Marketplace. We've had our tech team working on this since 4:30 in the afternoon on Wednesday and they're currently still working on it..." At this point, it's unclear whether anyone has successfully downloaded a full-length HD movie.

The system is getting hammered, and downloads are going slug-slow, or failing all together. The service stopped my movie download half way, and wouldn't download more unless I bought it again. Then I tried buying an HD movie, which failed, but took my cash anyhow (see image)
