For example, I can't see why anyone would want to skype and watch a basketball game on the same monitor when they could watch the game on their TV and skype on their laptop, tablet, etc. This is something that's already possible and accessible, so the enjoyment gain from the XBone isn't that great. Mostly everything else is either (a) already possible and accessible, or (b) not desired enough for it to be groundbreaking. The only example you listed that I see as actually desirable is the ability to get invites while watching TV, which isn't something I would call groundbreaking.

Guess you do everthing alone. My family for instance. My sister moved to Arkansas a few years back. She loves to watch Bears games with her nephews.  Well now with Skype we can Skype in her house in and can watch the game together. Yes we could have a laptop up and be looking at it while the game is on. Except the laptop is on my lap and the game is on the screen on the wall. So you are looking at one instead of the other.  But also we are watching together as a group rather than 1 of us on a laptop chatting with her during the game. 



Its libraries that sell systems not a single game.
