Just looking at the X Factor wiki and noticed this:

It was revealed by the Daily Mirror newspaper on 9 December 2006 that Simon Cowell has intentions of launching a "Euro X Factor" within two years.[4] The show, if launched, would feature European countries staging their own X Factor contests, with a winner announced for each. The individual winners would then take part in the "Euro X Factor". The concept is similar to that of World Idol and the Eurovision Song Contest; however, unlike these shows "Euro X Factor" would progress over a number of weeks, with one act eliminated each week, until an eventual international winner is found. It is anticipated that such a show could attract over 100 million viewers per episode, which would make it the world's biggest talent competition.

2 Years from December 06 is next month, so maybe they'd do something like this in early 09?

It'd basically be whichever country has the biggest population has the best chance of winning, IMO. No point, we have Eurovision for sham wins.

They should have to use the winner of the current series, I think thats what happened with World Idol.

I think, to make Eurovison better, every X Factor series in European countries should include a participation to Eurovision in the prize...the level would be much higher and we'll be able to compare all.
