Back in October I reported on Microsoft's plan to turn the Xbox 360 into a media hub. Streaming video, music; the company basically wants the gaming machine to become a viable replacement for the cable box. At that time, information was limited, but with the next Xbox 360 Dashboard Update scheduled for tomorrow, Microsoft has finally offered word on when you'll be seeing the various content providers' shows on your console.

Hit the jump for a comprehensive schedule.

From Microsoft's official press release:

The cool bit is that as far as anyone knows, all this content is going to be available for free (barring, obviously, stuff like Hulu Plus that requires its own stupid subscription fees) to all Xbox Live Gold members. Yay?

Decide for yourselves is this is rad. I'm too in love with streaming Netflix to have an opinion.
