"Dam whippersnapper"
It looks like there's an NDA :(.
 
Return of HD-DVD? :D

Just kidding...
 
I think it may just be a different way of writing the content on the disk and/or how it is read by the Xbox 360. Definitely do not expect any new sort of format
 
"#fw <c4eva-> MS will introduce xgd3 – this will add more ap checks, cvi (content integerity) checks, increase the disc size and adds a new layer for protection issues – all in the 20500 sdk! bring it on!"

It's basically another way to combat piracy.
 
You can check if you were accepted on the microsoft connect site.

Here is what it says for me:

Due to the nature of this update we will be splitting the Xbox LIVE Update Preview audience into two separate segments. This means we will have some unique scenarios associated to each group so that we can get the test coverage we are seeking for this update. On your console, once it is properly registered into the program you will be able to see the ‘Xbox Beta Channel’ and the first slot will also identify the AUDIENCE you are registered into.

YOU are in the Xbox LIVE Update Audience
 
Says the Same for me

I'm probably gonna sell my copy of reach since I already have it.
 
Well, I'd be careful , they did say that the initial update will be on the Reach Disc so..
*shrug*

I'm gonna keep mine. Free game+might be a good collectable some day
 
So update just went live and no backups work and the no-jtag glitch were you can get free marketplace content also doesn't work.
 
I was in the live group so we got the update already.
