Zatz Not Funny Reviews Microsoft’s Xbox 360 Video Marketplace


znf xbox video marketplaceDave Zatz holds no punches in his recent review of the newly launched Xbox 360 Video Marketplace. His initial gripes of the first generation service: weak dashboard navigation, lack of premium TV content, obscure points pricing model (i.e. $1.25 = 100 points, no bulk purchase discounts), insanely long download times, and lack of “same date” movie releases. After all that, you’ve got to wonder if their was anything he did like. Anyways, who whoever ends up delivering the promise of HD content on-demand to consumers with little hassle and at an attractive price point will initially end up sweeping the segment – be it TiVo, Apple iTV, Xbox Marketplace, Cable/Satellite Provider, etc. Let the battle begin!
