Report: Live TV Coming To The Xbox 360
Xbox 360 users in the U.S and Canada will get something similar to Europe’s Sky TV but it gets even more interesting. Our source told us that the Xbox 360 will be used as a digital television set-top box with PVR capabilities in Canada by an important telecommunication company. While we know the name of the company behind this project in Canada, we haven’t been able to get official confirmation on who will offer the same service in the United States.
A few weeks ago, rumours of a possible Xbox Live TV channel emerged on the web but it seems that this new service will go beyond “just one channel”. We are talking about a complete list of TV channels in high definition. In other words, it’s like putting Netflix, Zune Marketplace and Sky TV all in one place.
We expect to have more details in the upcoming weeks since the US/Canada deal has already been signed.
Could Microsoft reveal the whole thing at this year’s E3? We believe so.
Rumor isn't too far out there. Should be interesting. Cable TV is becoming less and less necessary for me.
