Netflix is gearing up to offer HD streaming of their content for the Xbox 360 platform. They currently offer streaming on PCs and Macs but the service is not in high definition. The service will be available when the new Xbox dashboard hits on November 19th. HD streaming will be available to Xbox Live Gold members only.

This is, however, only a "soft launch." Only 300 titles or so will be available at the launch of the service. That number will ramp up before too long, however.

According to Gamestop and a leaked Circuit City ad, a $99 60GB Xbox Live upgrade will be available starting next week. The bundle will include three months of Live Gold, a headset and a 60GB hard drive. The hard drive is perfect for the coming 128MB storage requirement of the new Xbox 360 UI. The company has offered no word on any other promotions that would coincide with the holiday season.
