Confirmed via Live http://www.itvt.com/story/5833/sky-news-begins-streaming-its-live-tv-output-free-charge-online Full rollout of Facebook/Twitter etc. apps not yet confirmed but thought to be 17th of November according to Major Nelson To sign up you need your Gamertag + Console ID. Whether this can result in a ban if your Xbox is flashed I have no idea. Up to the experts on this. Lastly, will this major update be the start of Wave 5 disks? I just don't know.
well i signed up to give it a whirl, hell even if i do get selected i can always refuse, the update is something you download from a certain site and then place on a usb stick to install on the xbox, sme as the previous preview programs.
Im defo looking forward to SKY player on the 360 as it will save me the cost of 2 extra boxes Not to bothered about Facebook and Twitter tho.
Wouldnt think so as its using the USB drive so the drive isnt being used. Who know though, M$ could but some software in there to query the drive. Unlikely though I think
In that case everyone will be banned when the official update comes through, so it doesn't really matter. I think i'm going to sign up.
Dont think ill bother as it looks like only sky news will be available until launch, and sky news sux!
This preview program is ONLY for the facebook/twitter and last.fm update, it has nothing to do with the sky player, which would be pretty pointless as the sky player hits the uk in just over a week!
