Microsoft has entered into an agreement with Limelight Networks that will hopefully result in improved reliability of Xbox Live.
Limelight is a web content delivery company, with customers like Facebook and MySpace. The company will provide Microsoft with media streaming and content delivery services over the course of a multiyear agreement. The idea is that Limelight's services will help Live deliver its content via less congested routes on the 'net.
Rival firm Akami Technologies provides much the same services for Sony and Nintendo.
