'Up to 300 Time Warner live TV channels' coming to Xbox 360 in the US
The Time Warner Cable TV app will give Xbox Live Gold subscribers access to channels including AMC, BBC World News, Bravo, Cartoon Network, CNN, Comedy Central, Food Network and HGTV. A subscription to the network (which currently starts at $65 per year) will be necessary.
Microsoft says that the service, which aligns the Xbox 360 with the features available on Xbox One, will be exclusive to the US.
"TWC TV is a significant addition to Xbox 360, bringing our customers their favourite entertainment in one place-enhanced TV experience, games, movies, music, sports and entertainment apps," said Blair Westlake, corporate vice president of media at Microsoft.
"Our partnership with TWC enhances all that is available on Xbox 360 today, which will we continue expand. We're thrilled to offer TWC TV to US Xbox Live members and Time Warner Cable subscribers."
Mike Angus, senior vice president and general manager of video for Time Warner Cable added: "We look forward to introducing TWC TV to Xbox 360 and providing customers with this new viewing experience within the home. We are very excited about Microsoft's vision for entertainment and the vast possibilities Xbox offers."
On-demand entertainment will be a central focus of Microsoft's Xbox One. The console is designed to be connected directly into a cable box allowing users to watch video content and play games at the same time.
Microsoft has officially announced an Xbox One release date window of November 2013 in 21 markets and a price of £429 / $499 / €499.

_RarityRaheemSterling_31 Don't think i'll bother with this. I rarely go on my Xbox just to watch T.V
I'm with you on this one I dont watch t.v on my Xbox
I hardly watch TV now. I'm not getting this but I hope they just don't try and advertise the TV everywhere on the console.

JimmyOTWGNinjaWizardJimmyOTWG So no live comcast TV?
I'm sure that they will come to their senses and add it later on down the road.
I really hope so, because On Demand is OK, but i would much prefer live TV
They may have both like sky player does.

MTDBDB why do they only do it for the US? Racists.
I don't think its because they're racist but most likely because timer Warner is in the US.
BUT the BBC is contributed to the network soooooo it's not just US, UK will be apart of this as well.... but US always gets stuff first is how we do things
