Comcast to Use Xbox 360 for TV Delivery
One of North America's "leading providers of entertainment, information and communications products and services" is looking to provide services on the Xbox 360 as a core offering.

According to the Wall Street Journal, "Comcast will start testing its new video-delivery technology at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology this fall, according to a person familiar with the matter, allowing students to watch live TV on a computer or TV that can connect to the Internet over the local campus network, without a cable-hook up...

"The company will expand testing to Comcast employees later this year, allowing them to watch live programming via a small box or another device that can connect to the Internet like a computer, tablet or Microsoft Corp.'s Xbox gaming console in their homes."

That would appear not to exclude the Sony Corp.'s PlayStation 3 gaming console.
