PC World reports that Microsoft is planning its own streaming TV service to compete with Netflix, Apple, Google, and a host of other companies, according to sources.



Reuters' sources say that while Microsoft TV won't be available for another 12 months or so, the initial content licensing talks have been "productive." Microsoft plans to directly sell individual high-end channels such as HBO and Showtime, and already has a deal with ESPN.
