Sirius taps Microsoft for mobile video | Tech News on ZDNet: "Making the announcement in Las Vegas before this week's Consumer Electronics Show, the two companies said that Sirius will build its video applications using the Microsoft tools and work with the software maker to develop programming. Sirius' initial plans are focused on creating satellite video services that can be viewed both in homes and cars, and the company cited Windows Media's compression technology as key to its efforts.
As in-car entertainment systems become more popular, Sirius said, its automotive industry partners such as BMW, Ford and Toyota are hungry for satellite video services. The automakers already offer Sirius' satellite radio services in some of their vehicles or are planning to do so. "
