Microsoft's latest dashboard update for Xbox 360 adds the Holy Grail of file-sharers - proper DivX and Xvid compatibility, thanks to MS adding support for the full MPEG-4 spec

Just like the previous update adding H.264 support, the 360's newfound DivX compatibility doesn't apply when its being used as a Window Media Center Extender. AC3 audio support as well as a host of other media-related updates are nice, but Microsoft is leaving some of its most dedicated users out in the cold.

So, the 'race' is still on as to who will give PROPER DivX, XviD support to their users, Xbox or PS3.
