The New Xbox Experience, set for launch on Nov 19., will change a lot of the functionality on Xbox Live Marketplace and today Microsoft revealed how the Xbox Live Video Marketplace will represent these changes.

The most notable change will be the inclusion of Netflix subscriptions which users will be able to queue and watch at their leisure through Xbox Live. All Xbox LIVE Gold members with a Netflix Unlimited subscription will be able to instantly watch more than 12,000 movies from the Netflix library in the United States. But beyond that, the interface for accessing movies on Xbox Live Video Marketplace will get a major facelift: you’ll be able to view hi-res box art for all the movies and TV shows, and read all the information that would usually be on the back of the DVD box.

You can get a glimpse of what all that will look like after the jump with before and after screenshots.
