The Xbox One is fighting back

I agree with you 100% but still the X1 made the wrong moves here. The cable TV one really made me scratch my head to be honest. How did that meeting go?

 

MS Exec: "Hey guys lets make are box compatiable with cable TV"

Assistant: "Aren't cable TV subscriptions dropping rapidly every year? Should we invest in something like that right now it's only going to continue dropping as this gen goes on"

Ms Exec: "I still have cable TV I'm sure a lot of people do"

Assistant: "....."

Well.    103 MILLION households out of the 114 MILLION tv watching households have PAID TV. (Cable, Sat, Telco).  Average household has 2.4 people in it.  So about 250 million of the 311 MILLION Americans have it..       80% of the country..       While the Intenet likes to YELL about the death of Cable TV..   it will still be DECADES until this changes much.     

So I am sure the meeting dealt with the actual fact and reality of paid TV..  and not the dream world the internet has created.

So. Yes...  80% of Americans have Cable/Paid TV...   and 90% of ALL TV households do..
