Question about
What will the new Live TV support for Xbox 360 be like in the Fall Update?
I am currently an active and rabid supporter of Windows Media Center, using the Xbox 360 as an Extender and archiving my recordings to my Windows Home Server (yeah, I kinda dig Microsoft stuff :) ). Does anyone have any dirt on how the Live TV update for the Xbox 360's NXE dashboard update will work for folks who rely so heavily on Media Center?
I've actually used SkyTv on my Xbox, and it's actually very nice. If they setup live tv in the U.S. like SkyTv is setup in Europe I will be very happy, I just hope that many different companies are supported in this. They way the US market is setup, from Coast to Coast we have so many different TV providers, it's untelling what provider any given Xbox user is subscribed to. It's just like with ESPN3 on Xbox or Online for that matter, my ISP supports it, but a friend of mine, who still lives in the same town as me, but cannot get my ISP uses a regional Cable provider that does not support ESPN3, so on his Xbox or computer he has no access to it. I don't want to see the LiveTv part of Xbox end up this way.
Regardless thou, with the way your currently using Media Center and the Xbox as an extender, I'd say you will want to continue this, you might like and use the live tv, but there will be many shows you won't be able to get with the live tv apps I'm certain.

There should be some screenshots and videos online of how Microsoft is currently using it with Sky Sports. From what I remember seeing and reading you will probably want to stick with Windows Media Center. www.youtube.com/watch?v=N9JsgQ8POF8
The one thing that is missing is who Microsoft will partner with to deliver this.
