Wow, I don't know why I haven't read about this anywhere (I stumbled upon it looking at the Xbox website).
Basically all you need to do is download the Zune software and then click Options, Library, Media Sharing. I just tested this using videos and it streams just fine to the Xbox (it's QUICK too!)

This documentary talks about video games and addiction. It seems a little exagerated. Statments such as "Kids’ reactions change when they are on a game and off a game", "video games are more damaging than regular chemical addictions" and "video games are keeping kids out of school."
