Microsoft doesn't have the APIs necessary to enable ads.

  Is this a confirmed fact? So far I think we've only heard from Microsoft regarding this.

  Their Xbox guys seem to have the APIs. http://venturebeat.com/2012/08/28/youtube-xbox-app/ http://venturebeat.com/2012/08/28/youtube-xbox-app/

    That app is built by YouTube.

      I'm honestly surprised by that. How long until a VP at Google decides it should be pulled to align with the company strategy? I'm betting dollars to doughnuts that we won't see a youtube app in the next Xbox for these very reasons.

  That is very sad indeed if true. Isn't Microsoft trying to break into the ad business as well? I thought I saw something like that in some Surface Apps.
