With the revamp of the Xbox Live service this week, one big addition in the U.S. will be live and on-demand television content from major cable and telecom providers, similar to television services launched on the Microsoft console in markets overseas.

However, the rollout will come in stages, and Verizon and Comcast customers shouldn’t expect to see either service on the console when the Xbox Live update is released on Tuesday. Verizon’s FiOS service will start offering selected live TV channels via Xbox Live later this month, according to a list released by Microsoft. Comcast’s Xfinity on-demand video service will be available in early 2012.

Here’s the full list via Microsoft, showing which services will be available, and when.
