Microsoft and Foxtel today announced a new partnership that will soon offer Australians the chance to watch pay television via their Xbox 360 console rather than a set-top box.
The service is one of the first of its type in the world and will launch "towards the end of the calendar year". It will be accessible to all homes in Australia that have a broadband internet connection.
An Xbox Gold subscription will be required in addition to a Foxtel by Xbox LIVE subscription.
