Posted on the Xbox.com forums by Xbox Community Manager Graeme Boyd:
Hi everyone – I’ve been talking to the team working on Xbox and Sky Player and they’ve given me this statement:
“We know that this is frustrating for those of you that are not yet able to access the Sky Player service on Xbox 360.
We know some of you have been able to access the service, and some can’t, this is due to the unprecedented scaling issues we’ve experienced.
This is unfortunate and we are doing everything we can to open the service to everybody. To make this possible we are doing the following; working with our Sky beta community and tens of thousands of consumers from the launch morning to test the service over the course of the weekend.
We aim to have this resolved as soon as possible.
In the meantime we really appreciate your support and patience while we address the problem.”
That’s all I have right now, but I’ll keep an eye here over the weekend and try to answer as many questions as possible and give you an update on Monday. Thanks again for your patience.
