Miscrosoft unsure about Netflix coming to UK

Microsoft's Neil Thompson is unsure whether British 360 owners will ever get the Netflix movie download service.

"Netflix is a great deal in the US, and we're looking at what we might want to do here in the future," said the Xbox UK bossman.

"But we think the content we're offering is broad-ranging and pretty deep. We have to evolve the live service in different territories at different speeds, depending on what we're able to achieve."

Microsoft announced last week that 30 new Universal movies will soon be heading to the current UK service, and while this would bring the total amount of films up to 330, Americans currently have over 10,000 to choose from.

So when will the UK get the same benefits of a Netflix-style service? Thompson is unsure, because at this time they are concentrating on the current content being provided.

"I don't know yet where we're going to take the services we've got," Thompson said. "We're concentrating on delivering the services we've got and bolstering the content we've got.

"There will be evolutions of that service, absolutely, but I'm not going to give you any timelines or specifics."
