Sky on my UK XBox? In Germany?

ILM_sky_announce Apparently Sky, is coming to the UK XBox. Today! (At some point)

Being an ex-pat with a Sky card and a father in the UK who pays way too much money to watch golf, tennis, football etc. on Sky I’m now wondering if I can get me some Sky action on the Xbox in Germany.

Apparently you don’t need a subscription to Sky but you do need an Xbox Gold subscription at 40 pounds per year.  If they can deliver BBC1-4 I’d pay 40 quid per year for that, no problem. I doubt BBC is going to be part of the package but it will be interesting to see what Sky include.

When the update comes I’ll test it out with a monthly Gold subscription.

My Xbox 360 was bought purely to front a Media Centre back-end and it’s turning out nicely. If Xbox could deliver a browser or videocast catcher though, I’d be a lot happier.
