Yeah, I find it really weird that XBox are taking that route 'cause the PS3 was accused of doing that too with the blu-ray player and such and that really didn't go down well. Media wranging is already being covered by a lot of other brands and people are certainly going to look at those before they think about a Swiss Army approach to entertainment.
People who are going to get an XBox already might like the features but I don't think it's going to draw many others in and they've turned off so many gamers that I'm not sure that can sustain either.
I do have to wonder how different the specs for the PS4 were before the XB1 announcement though! XP
