As of today lucky Xbox 360 owners in Canada and choice areas of Europe (France, Germany, Ireland and the UK, to be exact) can now log onto the Xbox Live Marketplace and rent "Space Cowboys." Is this the future or what?

It's worth noting that pricing and selection varies depending on your region. Canadians can expect to pay from 300 MS Points for a standard definition release and 440 Points for the HD version. Europeans will pay a slightly more reasonable 250 for SD and 380 for HD. Blame those greedy licensors, folks. In my ideal world video rentals would be free and Universal execs would deliver fresh cupcakes to your door.
