iTMS Songs Won’t Play on Xbox 360 Via iPod

After last week's confirmation that gamers will be able to connect their iPods to their Xbox 360 video game consoles and listen to their playlists, Microsoft on Tuesday revealed that music purchased on the iTunes Music Store won't be available.

Microsoft's Scott Henson told the Computer and Video Games Web site: "We do not have an official relationship with Apple for iPod connectivity." He confirmed the news reported last week that Apple rejected Microsoft when it tried to officially include such connectivity in the Xbox 360.

However, the console will still play music placed on the iPod through another means, such as MP3 files ripped from CDs. Reporter John Houlihan noted: "Some industry vets are suggesting Apple may even limit things further, by releasing updates that block iPod-360 interoperability." Henson said such a development would be "unfortunate."
