The Xbox 360 has full media streaming capability, either via connection through Windows Media Extender (or the Nullriver app for OS X), a connected USB hard drive, music ripped directly to the 360's HD and Netflix unlimited streaming. Of course, it also plays AAA games as well.

Oh yeah, they also offer HD TV shows & movie rentals via the 360 as well (from what I can tell, Netflix streams are "DVD quality" if you have a 3Mbps connection).

MS can showcase their hardware, including their keyboards and mice too as well as that Zune thing. I see the store offering XBox 360 hardware and software, all MS software, and the afore-mentioned keyboards & mice. I'd guess they'd probably sell AAA "Games For Windows" titles and other software too.
