Microsoft, Sky strike deal for live TV on the Xbox 360
Atul | May 29 2009

This are many headers which are self explanatory, but the one we have here has to top them all. You read it right folks; Sky and Microsoft are now in a deal that will see the Xbox 360 Console move into the domain of live linear TV broadcast. Xbox users could upgrade to Sky channels this coming autumn throughout the UK and Ireland. Other than sports and programs, Xbox users could also order movies on demand without the need of a set-top box or satellite dish. The existing Sky subscribers do not need to lose heart as the company has hinted at reduced costs if they prefer to use the Xbox console. The highlight of this joint deal would be the amalgamation of social interaction even while watching programs through the Xbox console. You could enter the virtual world say for instance by chatting while watching a soccer game. Welcome to the next level of entertainment!
