This is an awesome feature of the xbox360 and other consoles should take note. Upgrading my HD to 120gb was soo easy, and headache free.
I heard PS3 has a wierd system with redownloading games and content. Supposedly it's a pain in the ass.
It easy as pirating.

It's pretty much the same with redownloading. Once you buy something, you can download it from your psn account many times if you like.
@VashTS
Actually, with the PS3, you just log into your account on a different console and get your stuff. No questions asked.
I actually remember the 360's downloadable service being one of the biggest problems with the console. If you download a game, and then try to play it on a friend's console or a replacement console, you must be online to play it, otherwise it reverts to its trial version. My friend's console died, he kept the same hard drive, and this still happened to him, because a downloaded game registers itself to not only the hard drive, but to the individual console itself. A real kick in the nuts considering how often the 360s have problems. But this DRM issue may have been fixed -- I haven't had a 360 in a while.
Regardless, I'm glad this was a hassle-free process for you, superhobo. :D
From what I remember you can't play xbla games on a different console that you purchased them from unless you are online or you had microsoft transfer your account to that specific console.
