And you heard it here first.... my bold prediction from ms with this is there will be a ms branded iptv service (and real iptv this time not the uverse stuff) for media center and xbox live within a couple of years. It will be a hybrid system where network shows are ondemand as soon as its aired live (think the current video marketplace with smooth streaming). You also dont need a dvr anymore... subscribe to the series you want to watch and watch things like football live). Zune has always been about the subscription and they would add a new subscription for this as well.
this idea came to me when watching the HD live broadcast of the jackson funeral..... they really can broadcast live HD signals now and have it work well (even from canada)
