The Live Sky service launches in the this week, and have finally offered up specific details on the pricing of the new video content.

To use Sky TV on you'll need to be an existing Gold level Xbox Live subscriber, and at this point the basic subscription will cost 15 GBP per month.

The Basic Entertainment Pack includes GOLD, Sky Real Lives, Sky Arts 1, One, Sky Sports News, British Eurosport, ESPN Classic, Sky News, National Geographic, Nat Geo Wild, History, Eden, Cartoon Network, Boomerang, Nickelodeon, Channel and Nick Jr.

For an additional fee, users can also subscribe to Sky Sports and Sky Movies - while those users who already have a Sky package won't need to pay twice.
