Valve wants SteamOS to feature music and video services
Steam Dev Days attendees Becky Taylor and Jose Ilitzky relayed SteamOS's upcoming expansion via Twitter, though Valve has yet to issue an official statement. Developers continue to weigh in on the announcement via the #steamdevdays hashtag.
Valve's proposed digital entertainment expansion would put SteamOS in direct competition with Xbox Live and the PlayStation Network, which currently offer music, movies, and TV episodes on the Xbox 360, Xbox One, PlayStation 3, and PS4 platforms. Valve previously announced plans to tackle the console gaming market with Steam Machines, a lineup of SteamOS-powered computers specifically suited for living room gameplay.

I think it will be hard for Steam to compete with other companies that already offer music and video services.

steamOS is free...make a HTPC and have your own specs. There is no need to buy from the companies. Some of the steamboxes coming out are $499 which includes a the new controller
The best ones are around 1,000$. And well worth it.
Wasn't the best one up to $6,000 or something around that area?

I really don't see the point in using steam OS unless it offers something that really attracts me to it, other than that it really is no difference then the steam application for windows, mac, and Linux is it not? I might pick up a steam OS machine sometime later on in my life just to see if steam did something really cool, nice to see people trying to be innovative though.
