    Hi I have no internet at home but have been told that the I can download the update to a usb stick and update my xbox from that. One problem however work has my hands tied as what sites I can visit. I wanted to know if possible could someone give me a direct download link. Or does someone know if it is possible for me to download it via my phone (san franciso)

    This isn't possible. The OMU (Optional Media Update) can't be downloaded except from Xbox Live!

    As mentioned by Touching Virus, if it's the Optional Media Update that you're after, then it's not possible. It has to be downloaded from XBox Live.

    If it's the System Update that you're looking to install, playing a newly released game should install the update for you. Or you can download it from http://www.xbox.com/en-US/Support/UpdateSteps.

    For the New New XBox Experience (i.e. the Kinect update), due out in the next couple of weeks, they will probably update this article a few weeks later. Again, any game released in November / December should probably have the update on the Disc also.

    Hope that helps.

    Is the only way to watch movies on the xbox without a constant internet connection still to sign up a new silver account and download the media update?

    I've just moved into a house with no internet access and cant watch movies/tv shows!!
    ...such a pain

    Yes and it's likely to stay that way. Banned consoles without the OMU cannot get it etc. etc. :)
