List of Xbox entertainment channels and services coming!

Microsoft is ushering in the metro Dashboard tomorrow and with it comes a plan to unleash a metric ton of entertainment channels worldwide to the Xbox 360 console.  Starting tomorrow you’ll be prompted for a new update and you’ll be able to enjoy a Kinect enabled living.  That means you can use your voice to control just about everything on the console if you have Kinect.

“A new era in entertainment begins where all your entertainment is together in one place — your games, movies, TV shows, music and sports,” said Don Mattrick, president of the Interactive Entertainment Business at Microsoft. “With this update, Xbox 360 system owners will experience Kinect voice control integrated with Bing search, making your TV and entertainment experiences more social and personal than ever.”
