The problem is, they are trying to fix a problem that doesn't even exist in the first place. Switching sources with the TV remote? As if anyone has a problem with that. Watching youtube during a commercial? Everyone has a smartphone and many have a tablet these days. Having to change the source again? Well, the remote is right in front of you. DVR? Already integrated in the cable boxes...

The problem isnt switching sources or using a dvr. its content discovery...

The end goal here is not for you to switch or pvr anything but for you to say..."xbox watch tech" and for relevant tech content to start playing, regardless of if its live tv, dvr tv or which app or site is hosting it in the digital world.

Do you ever get to a point where you realize that people are either incapable of seeing or just too caught-up in their own mindset of how things are to see what both the author and you are envisioning?

Some people won't get it, and others will ceasingly try to never get it.

It's about a providing a multi-sourced, single-point content delievery service where the source and delivery are ubiquitous and transparent.

You as the viewer simply ask for content.  The Xbox One serves up that content.

To be honest I had to google this to find the movie... Is it  from "When Harry met Sally"? :)

Otherwise yeah I did expect some people not to see this...my very first post said: 

"...I do realize some of this stuff people may not be familiar with and may not understand. "

The way I see it, It is what it is and we are having a valid discussion and educating people. I was on this site arguing with guys like PSRock and VKing over 6 months ago saying that Xbox One is going to be a all in one set top box based video game console. This is because we spoke with Microsoft who were telling us that they plan a big integration with TV for the next Xbox. I was told that this idea is the craziest thing they ever and that I am smoking drugs... Back then I certanly didn't know how this is all going to work (I still dont). But more examples are starting to present themselves, and they look awesome...
