interesting, getting into an area of business just because "it makes money" doesn't make a lot of sense.

All of these streaming businesses need content. They are large money pits as well. Look at the spend on original content every year. What does it really drive in addition for MS ? Amazon did it as another benefit for Prime members. Google already has Youtube. Apple pushes hardware. Just curious what the net benefit for MS would be. Their xbox sells well alone, not sure if it makes a difference.
