Microsoft Eyes UK Digital TV Provider

xiox writes: "This story by the BBC claims that Microsoft are planning to "rescue" the failed digital TV provider in the UK, ITV Digital. This would enable them to get a large share of the British TV market, as the British Government has decided that all TVs will have to switch over to digital by 2010."

let us all understand the thinking behinf microsofts move here. bill gate MAY have to defend his hidious creation against the wigs in DC and, as we all know, he has no case and is as good as flaimbait. BUT! microsoft is and has always been slimey. if microsoft points out the fact that with the (failing) X box, MSNBC, and itv they have infact become an entertainment company and is mearly a big name for a bunch of little companys. its a lie, its slimly, its... right up bill's alley if you ask me. i can just hear the new M$ slogan, "diversify and you wont fry!'
