Microsoft and a major Chinese TV set maker announced Monday they will jointly develop entertainment products linking television and the Internet, joining a race to profit from the Web’s growing status as a channel to distribute movies and other programs. Microsoft and Sichuan Changhong Electric will explore “a wide range of scenarios for digital entertainment needs,” said Roger Chen, a Microsoft spokesperson in Beijing.
The types of equipment, software and other products that might be developed, in which countries they might be sold and other details are still under discussion, Chen said.
