The Xbox 360, Now A True Cable Box Killer

Don't be distracted by the video game trailers: this is Redmond's biggest news of the show. In fact the new offering could lead to a rival of the cord cutting movement. The Xbox 360 has nearly always had an impressive suite of media streaming options with Netflix and others. For most households, though, the offering was never enough to replace cable. In fact, it was more of a supplement.
