Microsoft job ads hints at Zune services in the living room

Well, what’s this? A recent Zune job posting says the boys down Redmond-town are looking for someone to come up with “innovative user interfaces for delivering a rich, deep interactive media consumption experience in a living room environment.” That sounds to us like integration of the Zune software team into the ConnectedTV division is starting to kick into gear — the listing also specifically mentions on-demand audio and video content, which seem like a natural direction for ZunePass. We’re not sure how any of this is going to pan out, but at least Microsoft is making moves to keep the struggling Zune platform alive — whether or not that involves actual Zune hardware in the future is still up for debate.
