Microsoft, as rumored, has just announced a vast array of partnerships for its Xbox Live TV streaming service. The biggest news is that Verizon will team up with the company to bring FiOS power to the Xbox 360, which will enable customers who subscribe to both Verizon internet services and have an Xbox Live Gold membership to stream television shows using a Verizon-developed application. A similar deal has also been announced for Comcast subscribers.
