Microsoft and Viacom Sign Content Agreement Deal

Microsoft signed a $500 million deal with Viacom this week. Some details:

Among the content Viacom is offering up for Microsoft’s use are movies from Paramount Picture and TV content including Comedy Central and MTV shows. These Viacom properties will be offered in online forms and through the Xbox 360’s LIVE service, helping to make it a more viable competitor to iTunes in terms of TV and motion picture offerings.

This could get interesting if you are allowed to get MTV content for your Zune. A few months back Microsoft signed a deal to get ESPN content.
