Hulu internet TV coming to Xbox 360
Rumours abound that Hulu’s internet TV may be coming to your Xbox 360. Xbox developer Microsoft suggested in a Newspaper interview that they may have a deal lined up with Hulu allowing Xbox 360 users to stream TV shows and movies straight to their Xbox 360.
Shane Kim from Microsoft has intimated that a deal will be done with Hulu, which would be Hulu’s only streaming partner. He said that they were also planning to add a music service to the Xbox 360 also
Microsoft want to team up with the major players such as Hulu and Youtube because, although there are plenty of TV streaming and video sites, the major content and traffic is going to these big players and they want to associate the Xbox with these expanding sites.
The deal, if done is a great move for both companie’s. Hulu could grab a massive Xbox audience already hooked up to broadband and increase their already over achieving advertising revenue. Microsoft could offer their army of fans an additional feature not available elsewhere by tapping into the massive Hulu catalogue of streaming TV shows and Catch up TV services.
