Are you ready for Metro?

Microsoft’s newest update (now available after a 9-hour delay) today marks a big step for the company in trying to become a leader in entertainment in its users’ living rooms.

For Microsoft, the availability of the new interface (known as Metro) is expanding from the Windows Phone 7 smartphones to the Xbox 360 starting today, and in 2012, it will offer a new versión of its computer operating system, Windows 8, with touch-based charcteristics on its interface. For now, Xbox 360 users will have to get used to Metro after 3 years of using the now-old interface that is being replaced by millions of people.

Besides the new interface, new services will be offered for users of the paid subscription service Xbox Live Gold, though some selected services will be used by game players for free. Gold users will enjoy watching TV channels live via Xbox Live. Diverse TV channels will be seen in over 20 countries.

After the update,  some aplicaciones have to be downloaded again (such as ESPN, Netflix, Hulu Plus, etc.).

The following is a list of the services that will be available, according to the indicated dates, through Xbox Live in different countries, and an infograph of Microsoft showing the Evolution of TV and Entertainment.
