In a bid to dominate the console tv market, Microsoft is in discussions with a bevy of content providers which include Channel 4, Myspace and the good old BBC to launch their services on the top selling console.
Sky TV already have their catch up tv service available for xbox 360. Other major networks are following because of the popularity of the next gen consoles.
Microsoft have been busy chatting with smaller content providers, such as VBS.tv, regarding the launch of an Xbox Live service, while brands like MySpace are also looking at using the console.
This week Xbox rolled out Facebook, Twitter, Last.fm and Zune services following a six-week trial, strengthening the console's social networking and media services. Xbox Live has 17m subscribers worldwide.
Paul Whitehead, Channel 4's head of business development for interactive, said the broadcaster was in talks with all console makers over future distribution deals.
"We want to put our content where our customers are. You can make some reasonable assumptions if you look at the demographics of Xbox users and 4oD users," he said.
The acclaimed iPlayer from BBC can be viewed on PlayStation 3 and the Nintendo Wii. A BBC spokesman said, "People clearly want the iPlayer on their games consoles and we don't think Xbox users are any different. So we've had initial discussions with Microsoft about adding the service onto its platform."


Neil Thompson, Microsoft's director for Europe in its entertainment & devices division, did not comment on any deals not already announced, but said, "Whatever we announce must bring elements of uniqueness to the Xbox Live service. We don't want just to replicate existing services."
He also said that Xbox would welcome third party ads on any new platforms, as the first commercial campaigns launched on Sky Player and Last.fm's new services.
