In atalk with Bitsabout what Xbox “ want[s ] to be when we raise up , ” Microsoft ’s Shane Kim clearly has video on the brainpower . With Netflix , he tell , they ’re “ just beginning to scratch the open . ”
As examples , Kim mentions look on pro sports game on the Xbox while confab with your friends , and reveals that they ’re thinking about adding a music service . ( Zune ? Hopefully not another avail . )
Here ’s where it gets interesting — Kim says they ’re not plan on a web internet browser or anything that completely bust start the Xbox . Rather , Kim says “ ” We are about delivering gamy quality experience , not having the most varied experiences . ” Bits ( unfortunately ) reword the next part :

He argued that while there may be century of video sites , most of the activity is digest on a smattering of sites like Hulu and YouTube . So his first instinct is cut a handful of deal that integrate the Xbox more deep into such web site .
Hulu on the Xbox 360 completely would be a “ higher calibre experience”—one that would blow our mind . The deal would make sense for both parties too : It ’s no dissimilar than the integrate Netflix service on Microsoft ’s end , and it would turn the system into the most serious , fantastic video corner around ( important , since PS3 has the Blu - ray advantage on the video recording front ) . For Hulu , it would be a vast chance to blow up their audience and ad revenue .
Of course , it ’s wholly potential , if not likely Kim was just spouting off instance and no Hulu deal is in works . But , if Microsoft really is looking at every adept pick , sure they ’re looking at Hulu . They ’ve already done tons of deals with Hulu parent NBC , and they ’ve never been afraid to give up to get what they need . We know it ’s what we require , so we hope where ’s the roll of tobacco , there ’s hot , streaming fire . [ Bits ]
