Wish it were free if you already have the W8 version, but I guess I'll double dip.

" To make the deal sweeter for some, Microsoft is giving Windows 8 and Windows Phone 8 users who buy the game before December 15th a way to get the Xbox One version at a discounted rate of $5."

And that's not double dipping?

Unlike Android which plays the exact same game anywhere, no matter how unoptimized it is for the hardware, this will be optimized for Xbox One.  As similar as dev tools are for Xbox One and Windows 8, game still needs to be ported and optimized for Xbox hence it costs money. 

Once Microsoft merges their ecosystems completely and sells it like that to the market, you can cry foul...
