I don't know what's worse news..this or the Hannah Montana shit. Where are the GAME related announcements that we give a shit about Microsoft?
BT is one of the worst ISPs in the UK, their prolific traffic shaping shenanigans, diabolical customer support and terrible reliability is infamous. Nice one Microsoft, your 'big' surprise just fell flat on it's face. >:(
BT rated 5th worst ISP in UK.

I take exception with that graph, no way is Tiscali worse than BT.
The surprise will be met by skeptical people though, a list of things better than a BT powered 360 include...
1) A Virgin powered 360 (as in Branson, not hymens)
2) A 360 that's RROD'd
3) A swift kick to the balls, Rev style

I assume it means that BT's IPTV service will use the 360 as the STB. The UK is already extremely well serviced by digital TV so this should be seen as a fairly ambiguous announcement. I don't see BT adding IPTV streaming to all their exchanges so services is likely to be regional and in competition with free to air digital, satellite and cable. For the record, Sony is purported to be offering a twin tuner FTA add on for the PS3 very shortly. It turns the PS3 into a PVR. No contract required.
As someone who has (unfortunately) worked for BT i can vouch for the poor customer service, and poor service generally. I'm sure whatever form this takes it will be as much of a rip-off as it is utter fail.
