Microsoft good be planning to introduce an exclusive television channel for Xbox Live users, reports are suggesting.
An anonymous source speaking to Bloomberg hinted that the console giant is speaking to former News Corporation president Peter Chernin, and that there was even a suggestion of raising the XBL subscription price by $1-2 in order to fund the project.
This new ‘channel’ would be jointly owned by Chernin and Microsoft, and feature original programmes as well as re-runs aimed specifically at the service’s young, male audience.
An interesting idea, although to be honest I think I could live without it if it meant raising the subscription price.
